Description
Whole Tilapia Fish (1kg) from our shop is sourced from Kenyan freshwater farms — the same Lake Victoria tilapia beloved across East Africa. Freshly cleaned and delivered whole, it is perfect for grilling over charcoal (the classic way), deep-frying to golden crispiness, baking in foil with coconut milk and spices, or steaming in a ginger-soy sauce. Cooking whole retains all the natural moisture and flavour that filleting can lose. Halal-certified, sourced fresh, and available for same-day delivery across Nairobi. An affordable, nutritious centrepiece for any meal.
Keeping Tilapia Whole Fish 1kg
- In the fridge
- Same day, or the next morning at the outside. Fish is not a keeper.
- In the freezer
- Up to 2 months, gutted and cleaned, as tight as you can wrap it.
- Defrosting
- In the fridge overnight and cook it at once. Do not refreeze.
Smell is the test — fresh fish smells of the sea, not of fish.

Yes. Every cut we sell is halal, and it is butchered at our stall at City Market in Nairobi.

On the cuts sold per kilogram you can order any weight from 0.5 kg in quarter-kilo steps. We cut as close to the weight you choose as the piece allows, and the price is for the weight you ordered.
When will it arrive? +
Same day across Nairobi if you order before 6:30 PM. You pay by M-Pesa to till 9700565 when you place the order, and we start cutting as soon as it is confirmed.
Can you cut it differently? +
Yes. Thickness, trim, boneless, diced for stew, minced through the mincer — write it in the notes at checkout and the butcher will do it.
