Market Profile
Nairobi Capital
Corporate demand structurally outpaces supply.
The Thesis
Nairobi is home to the African headquarters of over 40 multinational corporations and the ecosystem that produced M-Pesa.
The city represents the primary entry point for institutional capital in East Africa. The structural shortage of premium, secure, and fully serviced accommodation has created a landlord-favorable environment where quality-managed stock routinely achieves 80%+ annual occupancy.
