About Us

Bringing Change to Retail Development

Retail Worth is the leading retail analytics and insights company across Kenya and the East African region, providing retail based consultancy and solutions. With more than 15 years’ experience, we work with operators across different sectors including retail, leisure and transport to deliver unmatched results.

Our Expertise

Retail Worth has worked with clients all over the country and across East Africa for more than fifteen years, helping businesses respond to challenges when everything is on the line, from urgent performance improvement to complex restructuring, from risk mitigation to accelerated transformation.

Each project is different, but they all have one thing in common, a need for decisive, informed, and often urgent action. And because that need is at the heart of everything we do, it has come to shape every aspect of our business.

The way we work with our clients, as well as each other is as much a part of who we are as what we actually do. It’s what makes us different, and the partner of choice for some of the most successful as well as some of the most challenged businesses and companies, when it really matters.

We Deliver

Because we only work with clients when it really matters to them, time is often a factor so we have to hit the ground running. Our people are assured problem-solvers, and our distinctive breadth and depth of experience means we’ve dealt with most situations before which means we move quickly from analysis to action, working in small, agile teams.

Working together also applies to the way we work at Retail Worth. We form bespoke teams for each project that can quickly draw upon talent from across our global network, which means we incorporate a richer range of thinking. So you have the right team at your side, not to mention a combination of resources you won’t find anywhere else.

Partnership

We’re not just in your corner. We’re in the ring with you. We work shoulder to shoulder with you to ensure the work we do is completely integrated with your vision, culture and formula for success. You have invested time, energy, and experience into creating, growing, and managing your business, and while we bring a lot of experience to the table, we know it’s your table, and we feel privileged to sit at it with you.

We measure our success in real terms by the results we deliver, not just the advice we give. So unlike many consultancies, we don’t make recommendations and walk away, we stick around until the job is done. We’re accountable for a practical, sustainable outcome designed not just to help you succeed today, but to leave you ready to build on that success in the future when it really matters.

We recruit the most highly qualified professionals in the business from a wide range of backgrounds, so when we take on a project, we bring diverse ideas and knowledge as well as specific industry experience and functional expertise to the table. But if we feel we can’t make a difference, or if we think there are other advisors who might be a better fit for what you need, we’ll say so up front. We’ll even point you in the right direction. We won’t just tell you what we think you want to hear, as trusted advisors to businesses, companies, business leaders, owners and boards, diligence and honesty are among our greatest assets.
