Investment firm Britam is set to build a shopping mall along Nairobi’s Mombasa Road, underlining the rising popularity of the mega retail complexes among high-net worth investors.

The firm’s chief executive Benson Wairegi told the Business Daily that the company was buying 10 acres of land near Mlolongo to build a mall, targeting the growing number of middle-class Kenyans building homes in the south east of Nairobi.
