Businesses at Two Rivers recorded transactions worth Sh1 billion during the Somali cultural festival held at the venue last month, giving the vendors a much needed boost in revenue at a time when footfall in malls has fallen due to Covid-19 precautions.
The festival, which was held between July 19 and 25 and was timed to coincide with the Eid Ul Adha holiday on July 20, attracted a total of 247,104 attendees over the one week period with each spending on average Sh4,200.
