Everyone eats except the shareholder...



I rem posting here how Weston got that contract... The Manager Transfer and Karibu Team then was away on sick leave... Strict person that one... Then when she came back after like 1 month she was surprised to find passengers being taken to Weston.... Very little she could do.... It takes roughly 6 months for a new hotel to be given a contract by KQ... So many checks are done by the security team before it happens... Place like Tamarind just got contracts the other day while others like Hill Park and Nairobi Upper hill have theirs terminated because of incidents... For those who know the owner of Hill Park you can imagine with all that influence JBW has the contract was terminated.... No. 2 sio mchezo interesting bit is Weston quotes the lowest price if I am not wrong 4500 per pax... So def they will get volumes....


So educate me, if you are KQ management would you go to expensive hotels when weston is charging peanuts. Their strength is pricing and thats how they got the tender i guess



Ia m very ok with pricing.... 100% ok... Saves KQ money which is good.

They never went through the rigorous process that other hotels went through to get that contract... That is life esp in Kenya.

I don't think they have had any complaints so far so good....

The firm is overtrading sir obiero, also the old adge that operating margins are dismal is yet to be delt with.
Let's keep counting how many years doesn't 8t take to bring down a behemoth in Kenya.
