Series Information
2010 Census of Industrial Production is the third census of establishments being carried out in Kenya, previously conducted in 1977 and 1987. However, the 1987 data was not analyzed.
Abstract
The overall aim of the 2010 Census of Industrial Production (CIP), was to provide comprehensive information on the structure of the industrial activities in Kenya. The exercise targeted an estimated total of 3,000 registered establishments in the country. The CIP 2010 focused on various characteristics of formal establishments that included the economic activities at the four digit ISIC, employment, ownership structure, production and installed capacity, inventories, intermediate consumption, incomes, sales, ICT and fixed assets, among others.

A total of 1,814 formal establishments/firms responded for the industrial enquiry. Imputations were done for 438 establishments that did not respond based on other regular surveys and other administrative sources. The final results as reflected in the report are aggregated at the two digit (division) of ISIC.

The total output of the industrial sector in 2009 was KSh 1,009.2 billion with total gross value added of KSh 319.8 billion. Manufacturing activities recorded the largest share of industrial production, accounting for 90.3 per cent of total value of industrial output. This was followed by electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply which recorded 7.9 per cent of the total output. The total number of persons engaged as at June 2009 was 324,841 with about half of them based in Nairobi. The manufacturing sector accounted for about 94 per cent of total employment within the industrial sector.

Most of the employees in industry were males at 77.2 per cent.
A total of 30 per cent of establishments reported capacity utilization below 50 per cent. Some of the key reasons cited by the establishments leading to under-utilization were the high cost of fuels, electricity and raw materials during the reference period.

Sampling

Sampling Procedure
A total of 1,814 firms/establishments responded to the industrial activities enquiry. Data from 438 additional establishments were imputed based on other regular surveys such as MSIP, the quarterly BEE and other administrative data records for the year 2009. Therefore, the total number of industrial establishments on whose data this report is based is 2,252. The establishments that were not covered in the census included those that could not be located or traced, and those whose administrative records were not accessed. Delays in 7 receipt of returns from some establishments resulted in follow- ups, even after conclusion of data collection.

Data Collection Notes
The 2010 CIP was ideally supposed to be conducted by post. However, experiences from most surveys on establishments show better response rates when they are visited by researchers. A researcher-administered questionnaire was therefore used to gather the data. Operational units from both MOI and KNBS provided all the technical and logistical expertise in questionnaire design as well as in the collection, editing, coding, tabulation, evaluation, analysis of data, and report writing. Field data collection was organized in such a way that three enumerators reported to one supervisor and in turn three supervisors reported to one coordinator.

NOTE: The questionnaires were dropped and latter collected.
