Made In Nakuru For Kenya

How It All Began

The Journey From July 1990

We Started As Gitwe Stores

When Naivas began, we were Gitwe stores, but we changed it to Rongai stores. Later, we grew from Nakuru to Naivasha, where we again changed the name to Naivasha self-service stores. Fast forward to 2005, we entered the country’s capital Nairobi, and within a short while, we were already in Machakos. “Read about our beginning here.

Our Rebranding To Naivas

In 2006 we rebranded to Naivas, and we have since grown in leaps and bounds Introduced different store formats. We have supermarkets, Foodmarkets and express stores. The ride has been a wild one, but we would not have it any other way as it has led us here; Kenya’s Number 1 Supermarket and a beloved household name.

Our Investors

We have been a family-owned business Since our inception in July 1990 until June 2020 with the entry of a fresh investor Amethis. A critical strategy that not only strengthened its capital base but more importantly its corporate governance.
