@yeke the products that took us to Uchumi that day after shopping at Nakumatt were Pampers, Always, Pure Health Uji, Elianto. Okay maybe there's a claim that Elianto is out of stock, but since Dec, and all retail sizes?
It may not be a money issue, perhaps stocking policy that sometimes results in other products having leading shelf space?
It wont be easy but the battle is just beginning. Uchumi can maintain the 30% y-o-y growth in their middle-class customers. Customers would be reclaimed from Nakumatt (no 1) and Tuskys (no 2). Then recall how Uchumi, in its hey days, was perceived as a brand that helps small businesses - very Kenyan.
