Shoprite CEO Pieter Engelbrecht told investors at its results presentation that it would not have considered Kenya five years ago because it was home to three established retailers. However, things have changed and the Kenyan retail space is in disarray, Nakumatt, once East Africa's top retailer, filing for bankruptcy.
