ASA CITY: THE GREEN CITY 3
Description of Business
My name is Ammon Mwaliko, and we plan on building a manufacturing city and a
water desalination plant in Asa Area, Kenya. The purpose of this project is to solve
unemployment and the lack of opportunity experienced by rural citizens in and
around the coast. In addition the project will also boost the country’s economy as a
whole through distribution.
Every year there are rural families that end up having to discontinue their children’s
education because of lack of finances. The construction and duration of this city,
together with our plan of development should create enough jobs that would hold
these people and uplift their living standards.
We plan to acquire key investors that would use this development project as a
forum to explore their creativity in the creation of the various facilities that make
this project.
The development of Asa City is unique in its acquisition of employment. During Asa
city’s development, job opportunities based on the description list below shows why
it is outstanding and beneficial to everyone:
 Professional Jobs- Applicable for every one with the right qualifications in
order to create diversity in the city.
 Internships- University student jobs for the purpose of the progression of their
education.
 Temporary Job 1- Jobs with monthly pay but with a minimum duration of 3
years since it will only last until the complete development of the city. Locals
only.
 Temporary Job 2- Jobs that have a day to day pay. Only lasts until the
complete development of the city. Locals Only.
The reason behind the employment outline is to make little people feel like big
people. The jobs offered may not be their dream job, but it will hold them until they
ASA CITY: THE GREEN CITY 4

the pioneers who will make sure they are available throughout the project, in order
to ensure satisfaction of all parties involved.

and contribute to economy growth of Kenya by minimizing its imports and
maximizing exports.

the conventional sub urban developments like Nairobi and other traffic filled
congested cities.
The city will have a smart grid system that combines information,
telecommunication and power technology to create an intelligent digitized network
in the energy grid system. Commercial transport will be transformed to be efficient
and cost saving through tri-partition (a win-win collaboration between the
government, business and labor sectors). The commercial transport will be paid by
run by the government, and bus companies will be paid by number of kilometers
covered to prevent fight for busy routes.

facilities that are to be initiated before everything else. These facilities are;
Waste plant, solar panels and ocean desalination plant.
 Conferences with Asa project investors on the preparation and development
process of their individual Asa facilities and creation of deadlines and
workflow process
 Employ the surrounding communities to make the ground preparations of the
project (this is where the temporary jobs allocation will be employed)
 Engineers and construction companies take over after the ground preparations
to start constructions of their assigned projects
 Host periodical meetings with Asa investors and the Tana River County
government to brief them on current affairs of the project.
Health and Safety

The above outline is only a brief of the actual processes that would be going on. Asa
pioneers will oversee the whole process to ensure that all parties involved in the
development of this new age manufacturing city are satisfied with the results of their
contribution. “Build and they will come” is a motto we will apply in the development
of this project.

a stepping stone for the growth of Kenya and its people. This will be achieved by
ensuring the pioneers of this project steer the development of both the investors’
creativity and ensure satisfaction of the locals.
Products and Services
Asa City aims to spearhead the reduction of Kenyan’s dependency of imports by
contributing to the increase in quality of its exports, as well as promote relations
outside its borders.
Suppliers

agreements between the pioneers, the investor and the Tana River County
Government.

Regnant Holdings LLC will however lead the project with all its focus aimed at
completion of the green city and the fulfilment of the goals it intends to achieve. The

ASA CITY: THE GREEN CITY 12
SWOT Analysis
Strengths
 First green city in Africa
 Proximity to three national parks namely: Tsavo National Park, Arwale
National Park and Dodori National Reserve.
 Proximity to the Kenyan coast.
 Unique selling proposition and business niche that facilitates the expansion
of various industries and companies into Kenya and strengthening of
international relationships
 Area is large enough to allow diversification of the city into an urban
international one
 Proximity to resources from African countries and diversified opportunities
for companies to expand and form new relationships
 Suitable climate for a solar farm and other solar technologies.
Weakness
 Representation of the economic benefits of the project without accurate
resources to accurately display the county government costs.
Opportunities
 Unused land with desert climate and an ocean coast. Ideal conditions for the
development of a solar farm and desalination plant.
 Modern day technology that enables the reduction of limitations that would
have impeded construction, i.e. Construction machines, and transport
technology.
 Diverse employment opportunities.
Threats
No potential threats perceived thus far.
ASA CITY: THE GREEN CITY 13
Marketing
Asa City will have two websites; an exclusive website reserved for the Investors
involved and the Tana River County Government, and a Public website that will
maximize the advertisement of this project.
Market Analysis
Our target market is: the eligible working 55% of Kenya’s population aged 15-64,
the eligible working 57.7% of Coast counties’ population aged 15-64 and the
International community in order to create a diversified city.
We plan to convince our target market through various methods of advertisements
in our disposal in addition to the two websites that will be up and running as soon as
the Tana River County Government is on board. Asa City is aimed to be a leading
contributor in the growth of the industrial and technological field in Kenya, East
Africa and the rest of the world. With the current expanding youth population in
Kenya, the growth of this project is likely to act as a catalyst to the growth of Kenya
and its relations.
We aim to make Asa City look like a technical jungle at peace and collaboration
with the surrounding wildlife sceneries around it that include; Tsavo National Park,
Arwale National Park and Dodori National Reserve.
Strategy and Implementation
Asa City is a completely new project that aims to maximize relations of current
technology companies, investors, Kenyan citizens and the Tana River County
Government using the pioneers as the medium to ensure all parties benefit from their
contributions.
ASA CITY: THE GREEN CITY 14
The various employment levels outlined in this document will be used as a guide to
ensure that the Kenyan citizens maximize the diversified opportunity to build their
country and themselves, as the investor’s philanthropic contribution both financially
and creatively are realized and rewarded. This will be achieved with the maximum
cooperation of all parties included in this document. It is in our best interest to ensure
that the best approach is taken to ensure this project is popularized and initiated with
an unwavering increase in growth rate and potential through consistency and
dedication.
Why Kenya and not anywhere else?
We have an established local and foreign sector, a liberalized economy, a wide range
of tax treaties and investment promotion and protection agreements, business
friendly regulatory reforms, strategic location as a regional financial,
communication and transportation hub; and a growing number of skilled, English
proficient labor.
We are fully aware that the project and its challenges are big, and it is our hope that we partner
with investors who appreciate such ideas. We are ready to take business risks head on to actualize
the project for the sake of human progress.
