What is the best location to
start a pub in Nairobi? Well, there are more than 20 locations where you can
start a pub and post significant profits.
When starting a pub in the city, there are many factors to
consider. The major among them is population. As an entrepreneur you should set
your business in areas where traffic flow is high. With low traffic, it’s hard
to break even.
Another thing to consider is security. A secure environment will
definitely allow customers to drink into wee hours knowing well they can walk
home without any security threat.
Rent is also another factor to consider before
you set up a bar. If the rent is high, returns are low and vice versa.
The last one is the depth of the customers’ pockets. If you put
up the business in areas where income is low, you won’t realize meaningful
profits.

a pub in Nairobi

Nairobi CBD tops the list of most ideal locations for Pub
business. We select this location because of the high traffic flow in the area
and security. But for you to set up a pub in this location, you must have at
least Ksh 1.5million in capital.
Nairobi West comes second, followed by Rongai.The least
favourite locations include Kibera, Kariobangi, Mathare and Dandora.The estates
are not so favourable for business because of insecurity.
