The 29th carrefour store in the country has been opened at Sea Angel Mall on Jomo Kenyatta Avenue in the heart of Mombasa’s Central Business District. This milestone marks Carrefour’s first 24-hour retail outlet in Mombasa CBD, providing round-the-clock access to grocery shopping for residents, commuters, and travelers.
The 24-hour operational model represents a significant innovation in Kenya’s retail landscape, addressing growing demand for flexible shopping solutions in major urban centers. This approach accommodates diverse work schedules, travel patterns, and lifestyle preferences of modern consumers while serving one of the city’s busiest commercial areas.
Modern retail technology enhances the shopping experience through self-service options, efficient checkout systems, and knowledgeable customer service staff ensuring smooth operations throughout all hours.
The new store has created over 50 direct jobs, reinforcing Carrefour’s commitment to supporting Kenya’s economic growth and community development. Beyond direct employment, the outlet is expected to generate significant economic activity in the surrounding area through support for local suppliers and service providers, contributing to the commercial vitality of Jomo Kenyatta Avenue and the broader Central Business District.
With this opening, Carrefour now operates four stores across the Coastal region, joining existing locations at Promenade Mall, City Mall, and Diani Mall. This expansion demonstrates confidence in Kenya’s retail market and reflects the company’s long-term commitment to the country’s economic development.
Customers can access fresh produce, household essentials, personal care items, electronics, and a comprehensive selection of local and international brands. The store includes specialized sections for health and beauty products, home supplies.
As Carrefour continues expansion across Kenya, the retailer remains dedicated to innovative retail solutions that address evolving consumer needs while maintaining core values of quality, affordability, and customer satisfaction.
