The Opportunity

Why Malindi Beach
works now.

Kilifi County is Kenya's fastest-growing coastal destination. Highway access to Mombasa. Improving infrastructure. Malindi sits on 42 acres of owned freehold beachfront with zero acquisition risk. The land alone is worth $27.2M.

But this is not just a resort. It's a circular economy platform generating 14 distinct revenue streams across hospitality, residential, senior living, agriculture, energy, and wellness. Every stream is independent. When hotel occupancy dips, residential buy-ins, senior rentals, agriculture, energy exports, and wellness carry the project.

The returns are institutional: 26.2% equity IRR (+600 bps above DFI hurdles), 4.65x MOIC, 3.9-year payback, 4.35x Year 5 DSCR (349% covenant headroom). DFI-ready metrics. ESG credentials for impact investors.

The model is proven: Replicates ECAHLI's Kisumu flagship. Same architecture system. Same operations playbook. 3D-printed zero-carbon construction. Proven supply chains. Proven team deploying across Tiwi, Tsavo, and now Malindi.

The business is real: 14 revenue streams, not 2-3. Diversified resilience. Operating from Month 17. Full asset monetization. Equity multiples by Year 5.
