You can borrow cash from Mpesa,they have those options
Carrefour is French though the local franchise is run by a UAE company ( From Dubai) Al futaim. Its pronounced kafuu.. ( French). They have about 25 stores. They are not the biggest. The biggest is Naivas with 107 stores. In between them is Quickmart with about 60 stores. There are also a variety of other stores with dozens or 20some stores… Magunas, East matt, cleanshelf, etc. Then there are hundreds of thousands of neighbourhood stores.. .
Enjoy your stay
Mpesa is like a cash app but better cause it has more benefits.
Google maps helps you know about the traffic on Kenyan roads
Faras is better than bolt. You should try that too
Love your apartment
Good info. TFS!
Saida resembles and looks very Kenyan. Her folks and people’s were definitely from East Africa before they got stolen.
Faras app is the best
Bolt Uber want u to pay in advance
U get charged for no shows
Kenya drivers (not all but a good number)
Don't like short trips and trips that will not give them return trips
Make sure u pay with mpesa
Cash?u likely to be told they have no change if u gave them bigger bill
From the airport never take taxi
Take Uber faras bolt
Don't accept offers from dealers in kiosks inside to hook u with taxi
Get ur safaricom number at airport with mpesa
Thank you, guys, for the information, this was very helpful. I appreciate you guys. 🙏🥰👑
thank you great info
Carrefour is foreign French, domiciled in Nairobi mostly and not the largest!,,local brands control the supply like Naivas en quick mart
Two-Black-brothers-with-New-York-utube-EARN-YOUR-LEISURE-have partnered with local investors in Ghana to create a-400-acre-real-estate development with homes -Sanbra-City-Project .
Carrefour is not the largest, however it has a lot of products that can also be found in the American market like sour cream, cream cheese and processed meats, you may not be able to find these same products in other supermarkets like Naivas and quickmart despite the fact that they are just as large as if not larger(depending on the branch)
I like this topic. There are some APPs I wasn't aware off.
BGTW you can also use M-PESA to oay for plane tickets.
For transport we have Uber, Bolt, Little and Faras.
Carrefour is not the largest… Naivas is the largest, Quickmart and Carrefour.
Very informative video
