Located on Nairobi’s Eastern Bypass, the warehouse is highly accessible and convenient with connectivity to key arterial roads, Jomo Kenyatta international airport and the inland container depot.
Modifications were also introduced for the warehouse to suit the requirements and be fully operational.
In addition to this new acquisition, Bolloré operates 161,277 sq m warehousing space in Nairobi and Mombasa through ownership or long-term lease.
