“Nakumatt Holdings is actively exploring options for a store in Burundi to ensure that we fully cover East Africa before setting off on the Nakumatt 2.0 journey which involves registering a Pan African presence,” Shah said.

Nakumatt is planning to expand its business to other African countries including  Burundi, Zambia, South Sudan, DRC, Nigeria, Botswana and Malawi as part of its second growth phase dubbed “Nakumatt 2.0”.
