Nakumatt has opened a sixth branch in Kampala’s Katwe suburb, barely a fortnight after opening another one in the city’s Bugolobi suburb amid intensifying competition in the regional retail space.

The supermarket also plans to unveil its range of Nakumatt Blue Label consumer products in the Ugandan market as part of the events leading to its aggressive branch expansion move in the region.

Speaking at the official opening of the supermarket located at Muganzirwaza shopping centre in Katwe, Kampala, Nakumatt’s regional director Thiagarajan Ramamurthy confirmed that the full range of Nakumatt Blue Label products will soon be available at all Nakumatt stores in Uganda.

The private label brand was unveiled by Nakumatt early this year in Kenya and counts a wide range of consumer products of leading brands in the respective categories.

“As we officially open Nakumatt Katwe, I am also pleased to confirm that Nakumatt Blue Label products will be available on our Uganda shelves by mid-November.

These products are distinctively branded with an iconic blue band to reflect Nakumatt’s commitment to deliver quality and reliable products,” Ramamurthy said.

Following the opening of the Sh340 million ($4 million) Katwe branch, the supermarket plans to open two more branches in Kisementi on the outskirts of Kampala and at the lakeside town of Entebbe in November and December respectively.
