China Square owner says they make Sh10 million on a bad day

Owner of China Square Lei Cheng, commonly known as Charlie, has acknowledged that business is really thriving at the Unicity mall near Kenyatta University.

Lei Cheng stated in an interview with Nation that he opened his store in Kenya on January 29, 2023, and that two weeks later, he sold a staggering Sh20 million.

The company, which is already the talk of the town, is suddenly earning the equivalent of two weeks’ worth of revenue in just two days, which puts you in a terrible mood.

Thousands of Kenyans who swarm there in droves for goods and services have made this possible.

“The business is barely a month old. On a bad day, we sell goods worth Sh10 million,” Cheng told Nation.

Cheng revealed that he was inspired to start the business after he came across basic things being sold too expensive at local supermarkets.

He 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 centred on healthy completion. We have followed all government directives for opening a business in Kenya and”we are here to break monopolies,” he added.
