Speaking at the official opening of Mavazi Eldo Centre, Tuskys Group CEO Dan Githua said the firm has set its sights on opening at least 25 such stores countrywide by the end of this year.
“We are moving to plug existing market opportunities in various categories including the lifestyle clothing segment,” Mr Githua said. “Backed by extensive feasibility studies and the pilot rollout of the first few Mavazi stores, we remain confident that the new stores will provide much needed leverage to secure our market position.”
