Scaling African Aquaculture: Kamran Ahmad (Kivu Choice)

Scaling African Aquaculture: Kamran Ahmad (Kivu Choice)

What if one of the most important aquaculture growth stories isn’t happening in Norway, Chile, or Ecuador but in East Africa? This episode we step into a region that’s quietly transitioning from small-scale aquaculture into something far more commercial and durable. Focusing on Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda, we break down the structural forces driving growth (rising protein demand, pressure on wild fisheries, and improving feed, infrastructure, and policy support) and why Nile tilapia sits at the center of it all.

From Uganda’s push into export markets to Kenya’s commercial scale-up through companies like Victory Farms, and Rwanda’s rapid transformation led by Kivu Choice, this is a look at how an entire region is beginning to industrialize aquaculture in real time. We also hear directly from Kamran Ahmad on what it takes to build a scaled fish business from scratch and what comes next.
