Whereas that may be the case regarding Comcraft, there may be parts of it that could be listed.
I am not saying it makes sense for them to be listed but there is always the possibility.

What listing does offer complicated ownership structures is price discovery.

Let's say one part of Comcraft eg Comcraft Logistics (a fictional example) has multiple shareholders from different parts/generations of the family. Some want out. How do you price their shares in a "private" setting?

On the other hand, they can sell (or not) at the "market price" if listed when they want to.

Centum has stakes in bunch of firms/projects.

Just their real estate is spread between Two Rivers, Vipingo (possibly divided up further), Uganda, JVs, etc.

Then they have fully owned (obviously unlisted) firms e.g. Nabo which acts as Centum's money manager.
Part ownership in unlisted Isuzu, ACE/Sabis, Sidian, etc.

Listed firms like Longhorn.

Centum can choose to completely or partially exit any of these though for now listing doesn't seem the way to go!
