Enterprise Census [en/census]
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.
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 percent of total value of industrial output. This was followed by electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply which recorded 7.9 percent 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 percent of total employment within the industrial sector.
Most of the employees in industry were males at 77.2 percent. A total of 30 percent of establishments reported capacity utilization below 50 percent. 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
The 2010 CIP population of target respondents was made up of all establishments in Kenya that fall under ISIC Rev 4 sections B, C, D and E. These are namely; B (Mining and quarrying), C (Manufacturing), D (Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply) and E (Water supply; sewerage, waste management and remediation activities).
A Central Business Register (CBR) of establishments is kept by KNBS and is maintained and constantly updated using data /information from administrative and public utility records, newspaper announcements, business journals and field personnel contacts. This CBR provided the final list that was used in the 2010 CIP. However, due to some responses being received from enterprises as opposed to establishments, there could be minor differences in the total number of establishments in the CIP compared to CBR.
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 receipt of returns from some establishments resulted in follow- ups, even after conclusion of data collection.
94.8 percent of the responses were at establishment level. The rest were at enterprise level, with one response being received for 26 establishments. The overall response rate based on an initial target of 3,000 establishments was about 85 percent. Coverage in the mining and quarrying sector was rather low as most of these activities are carried out by informal units which were excluded in the 2010 CIP.

Survey instrument
A researcher-administered questionnaire was used to gather the data. Operational units from both Ministry of Industrialization 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.
The questionnaire includes the following topics:
- General particulars of an establishment,
- Characteristics of an establishment,
- The type of ownership,
- Employment hours worked and compensation of employees,
- Production installed capacity,
- Reasons for underutilization,
- Inventories,
- Annual expenditure on goods and services,
- Sales and other revenues,
- Research and development,
- Fixed assets.

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.
Data processing
The data was edited by the editing staff.
