About the Naivasha SEZ
The Naivasha SEZ has been developed by the Kenya Government as a public Special Economic Zone occupying 1,000 acres of land to drive the country’s industrialization agenda.
The Naivasha SEZ includes, among other common user facilities, an Inland Container Deport, Railway Marshalling Yard, a logistics zone, and a public utility area with a supporting road network.
The Naivasha SEZ is a gateway to the EAC and the wider Eastern and Central Africa Region.
The Kenyan government is keen in attracting investors by:
Cheaper Power tariff
The Naivasha SEZ enjoys the cheapest power tariff of 5US cents per unit decreed by the president. The substation has a capacity of 30KW. This will make the cost of manufacturing go down drastically.
