MEGHA Marketing (EA) Limited, one of the largest construction products suppliers based in Mombasa, has opened a showroom in Nairobi. The showroom is located in Binaa Complex along Langata Road in Karen.

The company, which was established in 2011 and has been serving the entire Coast region and beyond, hopes to replicate its success there in the Capital City. Although Megha Marketing’s main line of business is Steel, Cement and Roofing Sheets, it stocks products across the entire building spectrum, from basic items such as nails and tools, to tiles, bathroom products, kitchen fittings and locks. The Nairobi Showroom will initially feature wall and floor tiles, kitchen tops, sanitary ware and locks.

According to Mr Jeegar Jitendra Shah, a director of the company, Megha Marketing decided to have a presence in Nairobi in order to expand the reach of the brands they are representing, given that Nairobi is the convergence point of business in the country. The company is the exclusive agent for leading brands such as Simpolo, Dorset and Hindware. It is also an agent for Grohe and Kohler, both major international brands in bathroom and kitchen spaces.

Mr Shah says although the showroom contains premium products featuring the latest designs, the prices are affordable. “We want to uplift the living standards of everyone”, he says. He notes that one of the things that distinguishes Megha Marketing from its competitors is the company’s choice of suppliers. “We choose our suppliers very carefully, looking out for quality, value, pricing and aesthetics.”

Backed by a 150,000 square feet warehousing facility in Mombasa and a team of 250 members of staff, the company says it’s ready to serve the Nairobi market.
