Quickmart Supermarket has issued a statement stating that two of their branches in OTC and Ruiru were broken into during the 25th June protests.
The supermarket has denied claims circulating that several people were killed in one of its branches.
“Contrary to misleading information circulating on digital platforms, we wish to assure the public that no staff, customers, or any other individuals were injured or deceased at the two outlets,” read the statement in part from Quickmart.
“The safety and security of our employees, customers, and the wider community remain our top priorities,” the supermarket emphasized.
In the statement, Quickmart recognized that the recent events have posed a significant challenge for their two outlets and emphasized that it is deeply committed to restoring normalcy as swiftly as possible.
“We are actively engaging all necessary measures to ensure continued service excellence and to support our shoppers and staff during this time,” Quickmart noted.
“Quickmart remains dedicated to caring for our community and will continue to keep the public informed as we work towards stability and recovery,” the supermarket assured.
In the meantime, the management advised customers of the two branches to access services at their nearest alternative Quickmart branch.
