Kenya’s leading supermarket chain, Naivas has donated Kshs. 5 million worth of essential foodstuffs to support flood relief efforts in Kenya.
The donation, comprising 4,500 care packs containing items like cooking oil, flour, rice, and salt was channeled through the Kenya Red Cross.
Naivas collaborated with Capwell Industries, Kensalt, and Pwani Oil for this initiative.
The donations were delivered to the Kenya Red Cross Head Office in South C for distribution to 4,500 households affected by the floods.
Naivas expressed its commitment to continuing support for flood-affected communities beyond this donation.
“We understand that time is of the essence given how dire the situation is and continues to be, and extending this support in the shortest timeframe has been our priority. Naivas feels a strong duty to assist the communities in which we operate, and this is one of those times when we must stand up to be counted. This is not a one-off initiative, but we are looking at other ways to leverage our network to keep playing our part in supporting those impacted by the devastating floods,” said David Kimani, Managing Director, Naivas.
