Two Rivers Mall – a monumental shopping centre in Nairobi, Kenya, is part of a Sh25.1 billion development by Centum Group, which is majority owned by billionaire Chris Kirubi.

Located in Ruaka, within the Gigiri, Runda, and Muthaiga neighbourhood, the 65,000sqm mall that opened doors to the public on February 14, 2017, is touted as the largest mall in East Africa.

Two Rivers Mall consists of medium density residential homes, office blocks, a shopping centre, as well as a three-star and a five-star hotel, the flagship being the 170-room City Lodge.

French retailer Carrefour, which operates more than 12,000 outlets globally, is the anchor tenant at mall – with LC Wakiki, Woolsworths, Hugo Boss, and Nike being among its tenants.

The 2 Rivers Mall is owned by Two Rivers Lifestyle Company Ltd., a coalition of several high profile investors including Centum Group and OMP Africa Investment Company.

The company’s shareholding is split into two equal parts; with Two Rivers Development Limited holding a 50 per cent stake and the balance being held by OMP Africa Investment Company.
