Nairobi has recorded the fastest rise in rental yields for prime warehouses and industrial real estate in sub-Saharan Africa since 2018, driven by the country’s position as the regional trade hub and heavy investment in infrastructure.

Nairobi’s higher rental prices have been driven by higher demand for space from the agribusiness and fast-moving consumer goods segments, the latter partly due to the growing popularity of e-commerce retail platforms.
