Ennsvalley Bakery, who operate at select Nakumatt stores, are closing some of their outlets
Ennsvalley Bakery Limited are closing some of their outlets. Probably you are asking who Ennsvalley Bakery Limited is. This is the company that operates the bakery actions in some of the Nakumatt stores you visit.
The company specialises in a wide range of breads, rolls and pastries. They once graced the media spotlight for providing a post-dated loaf of bread to a customer in one of the Nakumatt Stores.
The following is part of the public notice to the general public.
“ENNSVALLEY Bakery Limited, who operate in-store bakeries and counters at Nakumatt Supermarkets in Nairobi and at the Coast, wish to notify their customers of the closure of selected outlets.
This move is motivated by the need to consolidate certain business operations at the central bakery in Nairobi and Nakumatt’s intention to renovate the outlets. ENNSVALLEY products will remain available on the category shelves in their stores, and at a number of other supermarket chains and self-service stores across the country.
ENNSVALLEY will continue to operate in-store bakeries at the following Nakumatt outlets: Mega, Galleria, Junction, Thika Road Mall (TRM), Village Market and Cinemax (Mombasa).”

The company has revealed that it is taking this measure as a result of Nakumatt’s intention to renovate the outlets. The need to ‘consolidate certain business operations at the central bakery in Nairobi’ also influenced this decision. Some of the outlets that will not be affected are the ones located at the following Nakumatt outlets:
- Mega
- Galleria
- Junction
- Thika Road Mall (TRM)
- Village Market
- Cinemax (Mombasa)
From the public notice, there is also indication that the company’s products will be available at a number of other supermarket chains and self-service stores across the country. Worry not as you will still be able to purchase their products from Nakumatt stores.
Closure of selected outlets directly translates to individuals losing their job positions. So far there is no official communication of what come to be of the employees from the affected outlets. Will they be re-assigned or home is the destination? Ennsvalley Bakery was established in 1996.
