At Shoshin Innovation Hub, we believe that technology must be practical, farmer-centered and ecosystem-driven.

This belief has accelerated our collaboration with Jumbo Fish Farm in Kakamega.

From real-time water-quality monitoring to improved record keeping, extension services and value-chain visibility, eSamaki is unlocking new possibilities for farmers and the broader blue economy.

We are proud to be building this momentum, creating solutions rooted in impact, powered by data and strengthened by partnership.

"One key thing when we were building this technology was, is it accessible to someone who is using a feature phone? Is it practical in an area where you don't have internet coverage?" -- Michael Karume, Head of Business & Strategy, Shoshin Innovation Hub

From inland ponds to coastal waters, eSamaki is going deeper into the Blue Economy.

Our team has been on the ground, demonstrating the app and training farmers on how to capture real-time data on water quality management, feeding and fish health.

These farmers are part of WorldFish's Cage and Pen Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture ( ) mariculture project in Kilifi and Kwale, an innovative approach that brings multiple marine species together within a single system to boost productivity and sustainability.

By equipping farmers with digital tools and the skills to use them, we’re laying the foundation for data-driven mariculture and a more resilient .

Shoshin is proud to formalize a partnership with Wetlands International Eastern Africa, Dr. Julie Mulonga, PhD, Director Wetlands International Eastern Africa and Michael Karume, Co-Founder and Head of Business and Strategy at ShoShin Innovation Hub through the signing of a MoU witnessed by Mercy Minoo.

This collaboration brings together two complementary strengths:

We’re excited to announce that is now part of the WorldFish Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) mariculture project in Kilifi and Kwale, marking our expansion from inland to coastal farming systems.

Shoshin serves as the technology partner, supporting the rearing of multiple marine species in a single system, an approach designed to boost yields, lower risks and improve profitability for coastal farmers.

Our role is bringing the power of IoT, data and AI to an innovation that has the potential to transform mariculture nationally and across the region.

A big thank you to the dedicated WorldFish team;
