In September 2016, the LTS CEO and Chairman of the Kenya Meat and Exporter's Association visited the site of the ongoing construction of the Government of Kenya Bachuma Livestock Export Quarantine.

The quarantine sits on a 15,000-acre site and is well positioned for cost-effective, disease-free livestock export through Mombasa Port.

It is the most protected of all quarantines in Africa today.  With 3 distinct and robust barricades to entry, the quarantine is <strong>highly secure</strong>.
