FAMILY BANK OFFICIALLY OPENS ITS 91ST BRANCH IN WANGIGE KIAMBU COUNTY KENYA
By Beverlyn Naliaka
Family Bank expanded its branch network to 91
with the opening of a new branch at Wangige
market bringing its services closer to the ever-
growing micro, small and medium-sized
customer base.
Family Bank Wangige branch seeks to serve
traders operating in the famous Wangige
market, one of the largest markets in East
Africa, schools and universities, transport and
infrastructure professionals, large and small-
scale farmers and the business community in
Wangige and around the area.
“We are glad to officially open our doors in
Wangige today marking our 91st branch across
37 counties and the 13th branch in Kiambu
County. We are also happy to note that Family
Bank is among one of the two banks that the
Government will work with for the SME Fund, a
vote of confidence in the Bank’s efforts towards
supporting micro, small and medium-sized
businesses,” said Family Bank CEO Rebecca
Mbithi.
The potential of Wangige and the larger Kiambu
County cannot be underscored with the
construction of the Nairobi Western Bypass
Highway, a planned road that will connect
Kikuyu town to the town of Ruaka, both in
Kiambu County.
“We are very proud of Family Bank for coming
to Kiambu County at such a timely season
when we are laying out plans for Wangige in
terms of buildings, markets, bus parks, among
other infrastructures. Coming to open this
Wangige branch shows the need for economic
empowerment for our people. As a county, we
are committed to not only support Family Bank
but also support the business community in
Kiambu,” said Kiambu County Governor H.E
James Nyoro.
Those present at the opening ceremony include
Kabete Member of Parliament Hon James
Githua (Wamacukuru), Deputy County
Commissioner Mr. Okaka Etiang and Family
Bank Founder and Director T.K. Muya.
