This document summarizes a social franchising project to improve sanitation facilities in Kibera, Kenya. It finds that the facilities have had positive financial results and increased usage over time. However, consistent water access is key to sustainability. Next steps include improving the facilities, increasing water and revenue sources, developing marketing, and revising governance strategies based on lessons learned.

The Water Imperative: New Standards in Corporate Water LeadershipCoro Strandberg
Water security is a top global issue. Virtually every product requires water at some point in its production, manufacturing or use. Water shortages and lack of access to clean, fresh water are two top global risks – and by 2030 global water consumption is expected to rise by 40%.
As water demand rises around the world it will be difficult for many businesses to operate as usual. Whole sectors, companies and corporate value chains depend on water for their success. WWF, RBC and Molson Coors present their thoughts on the risks and opportunities to business and how to manage them. Coro Strandberg, Strandberg Consulting, introduces guidelines to help companies become transformational corporate water leaders.

Grote partijen zijn al een tijdje onderweg met retail media. Ondertussen worden in dit domein ook de kansen zichtbaar voor andere spelers in de markt. Maar met die kansen ontstaan ook vragen: Zelf retail media worden of erop adverteren? In welke fase van de funnel past het en hoe integreer je het in een mediaplan? Wat is nu precies het verschil met marketplaces en Programmatic ads? In dit half uur beslechten we de dilemma's en krijg je antwoorden op wanneer het voor jou tijd is om de volgende stap te zetten.

3. Kibera, Kenya
• Kibera is an “informal settlement”
situated in the southwestern part of the
city of Nairobi. There are over a half
million people living in slum conditions in
one square mile:
• Virtually no access to toilets
• Limited access to clean water
• “Flying toilets” abound where people
defecate into plastic bags that they throw
onto the streets.
•In Silanga, our village, one pit latrine
serves about 272 people, while the WHO
recommends a maximum of 40 persons
per toilet.
•In Kibera, the mortality rate for children
under 5 is 19%.

Revised business focus became (1) making facilities
operational , (2) obtaining consistent water flow (3)
consistent record keeping and (4) adaptation of and

As facilities become operational, overall usage generally increases over time,
though impacted by water shortages/closures.
Daily overall average usage ranges from 53 (Oct) to 198 (Feb) across facilities.
Shower usage was limited primarily by water availability, but also lack of pumps to
upper tanks and lack of water heaters.

FACILITY
• Generally, usage increases at each facility over time (41 exception; attendant
change).
• Jola introduced monthly family usage fee in February, so actual usage
(conservatively) derived, rather than recorded.
• Holiday away trips and serious water shortages (forcing closures) affected usage.
• Location matters: proximity to cheaper pit latrines dampens general usage (MSF),
while proximity to a bar enhances usage (41)!

Biggest expense is payment of attendant, followed by purchase of water.
Toilet usage is biggest contributor to revenues, with the sale of water and
liquid soap enterprises at facilities emerging as additional revenue streams.
Water shortages restrict revenue opportunities significantly.
Planned enhancements to water storage capacity should significantly affect
water and shower revenues.

Facility
• Water shortages in February adversely affected every facility.
• Alternative monthly pay-for-family-use model at Jola emerged as most
effective in maintaining positive margin (if water is available).
• Current toilet usage alone appears insufficient in most cases to cover
attendants’ expected salaries.
• Increased water capacity could impact revenue stream significantly for
increased water sales, water purification enterprise, and shower usage.
15. Results-to-date: Facility Mgt
Project Mgt oversight has facilitated centralized problem solving
(e.g., attendant supplies, water issues).
Project Mgt oversight and profitable facilities has sparked re-
evaluation of Community governance strategies.
Priorities shifting due to identification of critically needed repairs
and water shortages.
Gathering data on facility/attendant conformance to SOPs.
Will correlate SOP conformance ratings (by CBO and Project
Manager) with Net Margin data to test hypothesis that higher
conformance is positively associated with net margin.
Once facilities are fully operational with new enterprises and
increased water capacity, the degree of project management
oversight will be varied to examine appropriate span of control.
16. Conclusions
Residents do use facilities when available.
Monthly passes per family yield consistently higher net
margin (JOLA).
Consistency in facility functionality and water access is key
to long-term profitability.
Structural repairs are needed to extend functionality and
increase revenue.
Need to expand “marketing” by meeting users’ basic needs
first (e.g., greater access to clean water).
17. Social Franchising: Lessons Learned
Business model yields positive net margin at facilities, critical for
operational sustainability.
Improved communication up and down the value
chain, facilitated by the project manager, contributed to
financial gains and sharing of local innovations.
Defining “social” concept means adapting to ever-changing
needs of the community:
Monthly family-usage fees
Local governance strategies
Critical need for greater access to clean water
Additional data gathering will enable determination of:
Appropriate project management span-of-control
Impact on health outcomes and hygiene practices
User perceptions of influence of local governance

19. Next Steps: Increase Revenues

Promote water
purification and
liquid soap sales
Develop marketing

Create consistent

facilities
20. Next Steps: Manage Facilities
Revise and implement

strategies & structure
Evaluate high/low
project mgt oversight to
determine appropriate
span-of-control
Evaluate residents’
attitudes towards facility
oversight (CBO post-
