The centre, built in 2006, is currently not functioning. The lack of access to water is a concern for the infrastructure and the community.
Inside the centre, there are some tarimbas, but there is no means or equipment (generator, conservation chamber, ice machine, chairs, tables, etc.). The entire infrastructure needs rehabilitation.
The centre, located in Benguela, about 30 km from the main road, was inaugurated in February 2020 and is currently in full operation.
There is 1 legally constituted cooperative in Egypt Beach with about 311 members (201 men and 110 women). The centre is managed by the cooperative and a local person.
It is equipped with 2 conservation chambers, an ice machine, a processing area, solar panels, generator, cutting equipment. It has 8 boats, 3 of which are motorized, and 2 caleluias.
