Do you have factory or industry in Mombasa City? Many people are searching for Mombasa Town Industries and factories.

On this page therefore, I m happy to tell you that I have added all the small and big factories in this area.

Mombasa is a major trade centre and home to Kenya's only large seaport, the Kilindini Harbour. Kilindini is an old Swahili term meaning "deep".

The port is so called because the channel is naturally very deep.

Kilindini Harbor is an example of a natural geographic phenomenon called a ria, formed millions of years ago when the sea level rose and engulfed a river that was flowing from the mainland.

Other local industries include an oil refinery and the Bamburi Cement factory. The major intercontinental undersea telecom cables reach shore next to Mombasa, connecting East Africa to the rest of the world and supporting a fast-growing call centre business in the area.
