The Hub Karen is a shopping centre in Nairobi, Kenya that was opened on 4 February 2016. It is located in the affluent Karen suburb of Nairobi. It hosts both international and local retailers. The mall now hosts over 85 stores [1] and receives roughly 55,000 visitors per week.
The development of the Hub Karen mall has been split into two phases, the first phase being a 35,000-square-metre gross area (excluding parking) that features retail spaces, offices, a gym, a kids' play area, medical access, and outdoor aerial activities.
At the heart of the mall is a 2,000-square-metre piazza and a clock tower. The area is used for a range of activities, including travel exhibitions. [2] The mall is host to the first Carrefour Hypermarket opened in East Africa, [3] as well as the first F&F branch in Africa. [4] Burger King also opened its first restaurant in Kenya at The Hub in November 2016. [5]
The Hub Karen supports the local community through funding projects. It is involved with the Karengata Youth Soccer Association, the newly built community library, and the local police force. [6]
In May 2017, The Hub Karen Mall announced it would install a 450KW solar power plant to generate power for the mall's daily needs. [7]
