The Kibarani factory plays a significant role in support of KDF Units/Formations and security agencies within the Coast region by supplying fresh and quality meat products to help them expedite their roles.
The face-lift is also geared towards uplifting the livelihood of the livestock farmers in the Coast and North Eastern regions by providing a ready market and buying livestock at competitive prices.
General Kibochi also toured the Makupa Nyama haven, a one-stop shop where fresh meat products are sold to members of the public.
