My suspicion is that the under-stocked branches are what Nakumatt will downsize on and they probably just letting the lease run out and current stock sell out before announcing closure of those branches. There was some #fakeNews of branches to be closed and TRM was one of them. TRM probably already suspecting Nakumatt is getting out and wants to cut its losses.
@Kawi Do you have the list of the branches that were to be closed down in the fake news. Some of these things might actually turn out to be true
TRM, Garden City, Lavington, Westlands* , Embakasi and Kitisuru.There are two more I cant remember.
Embakasi they are relocating to the adjacent South Field mall Westlands most probably will be UKay they will be shutting down. Garden city--May be TRM--May be Kitusuru--May be Lavington--May be

Is it true that TRM is owned by Thiagarajan Ramamurthy (TRM)?

Some one took the money somewhere. Question ? Does one steal from himself ?

It's undergoing a reset due to poor planning. Confirm if it's true that Nakumatt/Atul Shah paid Harun Mwau sh.3bn to acquire bis 7.7% stake

Retail chain Nakumatt’s troubles have deepened after one of its creditors, Thika Road Mall (TRM), attached large amounts of the supermarket’s goods and equipment seeking to recover Sh51 million in rent arrears. TRM, through Moran Auctioneers, seized a number of Nakumatt’s assets, including six moving trucks, 400 customer trolleys, office furniture, ovens and other electrical appliances, forcing the retailer to rush to court for an order temporarily suspending the auction.
Waah free fall...
Rent lazima walipe.. Hope the court hears none of the nonsense
Kifo cha nyani moment...TRM does not want to be caught up with Section 472 and 481

If a person (whether or not a landlord or person entitled to rent) has distrained on the property of the company during the three months immediately preceding the date of the liquidation order, that property, or the proceeds of its sale, is charged for the benefit of the company with the preferential debts of the company to the extent that the company's assets are for the time being insufficient to satisfy them.
Quote:
the creditor is not entitled to retain the benefit of the execution or attachment against the liquidator unless the creditor has completed the execution or attachment before the commencement of the liquidation
Sad that this monkey is another victim of the interest rate cap it can't access credit to keep it running. Other monkey firms will go down with this monkey.
Credit runs the economy, if Nakumatt of all companies is being denied credit, what about Simo wa carwash or Jane wa Abuja braids
Let's not bring Jubilee into this matter. Nakumatt is where it is because of poor debt management. You want them to seek more debt to pay off bad debt? Business would become insolvent before the year is out.

Woie!!! Auctioneers are crazy. What are they going to do with 11 packets of KCC Delight Yogurt and 400 shopping trolleys?? This is going to get ugly because I hear Nakumatt actually does not own anything in its stores. The inventory belongs to the suppliers who are paid after goods are sold. All shelves in the store and other tools of trade including I suspect the shopping trolleys and fridges are leased from third parties, premises are all rented so the only thing that Nakumatt owns is the name Nakumatt.
