There seems to be work ongoing inside Uchumi Ongata Ronga. Does anyone have any info? or maybe its just another supermarket about to start. “You can get in way more trouble with a good idea than a bad idea, because you forget that the good idea has limits.” - Ben Graham

Uchumi inks Sh2.8bn sale contract for Kasarani land. Uchumi, which owes suppliers over Sh3.6 billion, has been banking on the sale of the land to turn around its fortunes. https://www.businessdail...2098-n2ifwwz/index.html

A block with 6 floors can give you >700k per month.
