The once-thriving Kenyan retailer Uchumi Supermarket is facing potential liquidation amidst struggles in its recovery plan, primarily due to financial and legal challenges.

• Loss of a Sh2.8 billion land parcel in Kasarani, Nairobi to the Kenya Defence Forces after a court ruling.
• Key spokesperson: Owen Koimburi, an insolvency practitioner for Uchumi, who claims strong grounds for appeal.
• The retailer's debt totals Sh2.9 billion to banks and Sh521.7 million owed to staff, compounded by meager revenues of Sh111.08 million YTD 2025.
