The company has limited deep freezer capacity, with which they store a few bird carcass and sometimes when the carcass are frozen customers have to wait for it to defrost while some impatient customers walk away.Having an own slaughter house they say is advantageous to them since the cost of hiring slaughterhouse services is expensive and eats into their profit margin. Power outages that last 2-3 days, make the frozen carcass go stale incurring losses and the power bills being costly at Ksh. 10,000 the expenses then go up.

Freshwater fish processing, like the processing of other food raw materials, should assure best possible market quality, provide a proper form of semi-processed of final product, assure health safety of products, apply the most rational raw processing method and reduce waste to the extent possible. Due to its chemical composition, fish is a perishable raw material. Fish flavour and texture change rapidly during storage after death. It is thus advisable in freshwater fish processing to keep the fish alive as long as possible. Actions focusing on quality assurance also involve transport and storage/depuration of the fish awaiting processing. At Jubilee market, fish scaling and filleting was being done in the open under very unfavorable conditions where the actors/ processors work under hot sun and or being rained on because of lack of shade, poor drainage, poor and inadequate work tops, and lack of flowing water leading to unhygienic fish handling conditions and therefore the need to construct the unit.
