Accelerating economic growth requires more than ambitious ideas. It requires a pipeline of well-structured, investment-ready projects and the partnerships to bring them to life.

At its Q2 Council Meeting, the Economic Development & Investment Council (EDIC) reviewed progress on key initiatives and aligned on the priorities that will help accelerate investment and implementation across the Greater Mombasa region.

The Council’s priorities include:
🔹 Unlocking SME export growth through the Tea SME Export Enablement Platform, with a focus on value addition, trade finance, and market access.
🔹 Strengthening Greater Mombasa’s position as a business events destination by advancing the investment case for the Mombasa Convention Precinct (MICE).
🔹 Advancing sustainable urban mobility through the Mombasa Water Transport initiative, including proof-of-concept sites and integrated transport planning.
🔹 Fast-tracking a pipeline of high-impact investments across energy, housing, tourism, and logistics.
🔹 Creating an enabling environment for private investment by strengthening policy coordination and investment facilitation.

Together, these initiatives represent a coordinated development agenda designed to strengthen Greater Mombasa’s competitiveness, attract investment, and create sustainable economic opportunities across the Coast.

The Council reaffirmed its commitment to moving priority projects from concept to implementation by leveraging its collective expertise, partnerships, and networks.
