Gikondo → Kigali SEZ relocation
Master planning and civil infrastructure design, Government of Rwanda, Phase I & II.
Sector 06 / 06
A client developing or relocating to a Special Economic Zone in Kenya needs to establish which statutes engage the site and which authority issues the licence before committing to design.
The Special Economic Zones Act, 2015 gazettes the zone and appoints the Special Economic Zones Authority (SEZA) as its licensing and regulatory authority. Engineering for the site still has to satisfy the Physical and Land Use Planning Act, 2019 on land use, National Construction Authority (NCA) project registration on construction (NCA Act, 2011), and NEMA clearance under the Environmental Management and Coordination Act (EMCA) where the Second Schedule is engaged. Shomax's reference draws on its planning, civil infrastructure, and cross-border project record: the Gikondo Industrial Park to Kigali Special Economic Zone relocation (USD 36 M, Government of Rwanda, Phase I and II).
The instruction included deconstruction of an existing industrial cluster in Gikondo, Kigali, and master planning and civil infrastructure design of the receiving Special Economic Zone site under FIDIC contract conditions. It remains the firm's principal cross-border industrial reference.
