Powering Sustainability
Lake View Fisheries Ltd is located on Mfangano Island and is disconnected from the mains electricity. Available electricity is supplied by generators and is inconsistent. We have a lot of power rationing.
Lake View Fisheries Ltd produces fish fingerlings in a recirculating system that uses energy all round. Therefore we invested in a solar system to assist run the farm without disturbance and reduce the costs of power. The solar system runs the RAS system, lightning, ice making machine, water pumping and cold rooms.

Take A Sneak Peak!
LVF working with support of M-sawa project made a great impact in the marginalized community around the lake. Several hundred small scale farmers were trained allowing them to farm their own fish. The farmers received affordable inputs and support all the way to getting to market.
