Kenya’s real estate sector has been on a steady growth path in recent years, contributing 8.8% to the national GDP in 2016, up from 7.2% the previous year (KNBS). This expansion has triggered massive demand for building materials, particularly in urban areas where office space, residential, industrial, and special-use properties are rapidly developing.
The rising demand has caused commodity prices to surge, underscoring the need—and opportunity—for investment in construction material ventures.
Gitathuru Mining, a subsidiary of Rokim Kenya Ltd, operates on Title 4463 in Cura Sub-location, Kabete. The property measures 0.145 hectares and fronts the Gitathuru River.
We have embarked on a process to commercialize our quarry stone, with future plans to transform part of the site into a River Restaurant, creating both economic and lifestyle value. Currently, we are awaiting final NEMA certification to commence blasting and crushing operations.
Revenue generated from Gitathuru Mining will support Rokim Kenya’s other businesses and subsidiaries, including:
Beyond business growth, our quarry project brings widespread benefits to the community and county, such as: Affordable building materials, land appreciation, job creation, revenue growth, boost to small businesses, improved security and better road infrastructure
So far, over Ksh 2 million has been invested in site development, including:
To commence full operations, we are seeking investment partners and financial institutions to fund the purchase of a Stone Crusher and Backhoe tractor. This will reduce dependence on costly equipment hire, safeguard profitability, and accelerate our growth trajectory.
Gitathuru Mining is more than a quarry—it’s a cornerstone for Kenya’s construction sector, community upliftment, and sustainable business growth. By powering development today, we lay the foundation for future opportunities, innovation, and prosperity.
