Chinese Square owner Lei Cheng, also known as Charlie, has admitted that his business, domiciled in Kenyatta University's Unicity mall, is indeed booming.
In an interview with Nation, Lei Cheng noted that he set up his shop in Kenya on January 29, 2023 and two weeks later, he sold a jaw-dropping Sh20 million.
The business, which is now the talk of the town, is now making the two-week amount in two days on a bad day.
This has been enabled by thousands of Kenyans who throng there for goods and services.
"The business is barely a month old. On a bad day, we sell goods worth Sh10 million," Cheng told Nation.
He revealed that he was inspired to start the business after he came across basic things being sold expensively in local supermarkets.
Cheng said the idea to start the business was fueled by his desire to avail basic goods to Kenyans at fair prices.
He maintained that he followed all legal processes in setting up the business.
Cheng noted that he has attracted Kenyans because of his market strategy that he feels is being unfairly targeted.
"My business is legal and is centered on healthy competition. We have followed all government directives for opening a business in Kenya and we are here to break monopolies," he added.
