About This Catch

Premium Lake Victoria Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) — a mild, white-fleshed fish both farmed and wild-caught in the fresh waters of Lake Victoria, and Kenya's most widely eaten fish. Delicate flavour, firm texture, and forgiving to cook: it grills, deep-fries and stews equally well, which is why it moves fastest through hotels, fish fryers and household kitchens alike. Typically traded whole and gutted in the 300g–800g range, with larger table-size fish available in season. Sourced from certified cold storage facilities across Kisumu, Siaya, Homa Bay, Migori and Busia, and held on ice or frozen from the landing site onward so what reaches a trader is still stiff, clear-eyed and firm. Currently 1,000 kg available across 8 certified storage facilities. Order via WhatsApp for current pricing and delivery.
