Kamakis (or Kamaki's) is an area located along the Nairobi Eastern Bypass Highway. Often referred to as "Nairobi's Nyama Choma Belt",[1] the area is administratively in Ruiru, Kiambu County which by extension falls within the greater Nairobi Metropolitan Region.
Commerce
[edit | edit source]Kamakis started off as a Nyama choma (grilled meat) shopping center, often getting recognized among popular Nyama Choma joints in Kenya.[2]
With time, thanks to its strategic location, it metamorphosed into a commercial center featuring top-tier banks, fast-food joints like KFC and modern-day infrastructure.[3]
Danjose Academy, one of the leading academic primary institutions, is located in Ruiru, Kamakis
As of 2023, banks like DTB [4] and hospitals like the Aga Khan University Hospital [5] had since set up shop in the area.
