Ruiru

Was a sisal and coffee growing district with sisal on either side of the river to the right of the main road to Thika. Has a tranquil environment ideal for a home. It also has a rural feel allowing you to keep animals, grow vegetables or even have a fish pond, something you would not easily do in urban centers in Nairobi. Its an industrial town with several major factories, including Devki Steel Mills, Super Foam Limited, Spinners & Spinners Garment Factory and Ruiru Feeds Limited. It’s the 6th largest urban center in Kenya growth drive by:- 1. Shortage of affordable residential housing in Nairobi. 2. Sits at a Nexus of Rail, Road, Air transports systems and large swaths of Coffee estates which can be redeveloped. 3. Infrastructure development especially Thika Road and Nairobi Eastern Bypass Highway plus associated commercial and residential developments that followed the new highways. 4. Presence of university campuses in or near Ruiru. 5. Development of Northlands and completion of Tatu City will have a huge impact on the town
