"This approach reflects our commitment to bringing the world's best products closer to Rwandan consumers, all on affordable terms,”he said.

Quality and affordability

Quality at Simba does not come at a premium cost; it is a core pillar of the supermarket’s business model, supported by direct sourcing from manufacturers. Pricing is continuously reviewed to ensure customers receive strong value for money, particularly on essential goods and fresh food that form the backbone of most households.

"Through efficient supply chains and strong partnerships, Simba is able to offer competitive prices while maintaining consistent quality," Mutabazi noted, adding that this makes the supermarket a trusted choice for families and individuals alike.

Accessibility

One of Simba’s key strengths lies in its customer-focused store network. Simba brings a full-service supermarket experience closer to customers by strategically locating its outlets within residential areas, making everyday shopping more accessible, efficient, and comfortable.

This proximity model saves time and reduces stress, reinforcing Simba’s position as a true neighborhood supermarket and one-stop destination for Rwandans, offering a comprehensive range of products that meet everyday household needs under one roof.

Expansion

As demand grows, Simba Supermarket is expanding its footprint to reach more customers across the country. A new branch in Gahanga, Kicukiro District, is set to open soon, further strengthening Simba's presence and bringing convenient shopping closer to residents.

"Simba is redefining the traditional model where instead of customers going to the supermarket, the supermarket now comes to them,” Mutabazi noted.

Currently, Simba operates 12 branches across Kigali and two in the Western Province (Rubavu and Musanze), ensuring consistent standards of quality, service, and accessibility across regions.

Across every product category, Simba applies a careful selection process to ensure all international brands meet high global standards. By combining global sourcing with efficient supply chains, Simba consistently delivers high-quality products at affordable prices.

Through strong international partnerships, community-focused locations, and a clear commitment to quality, Simba Supermarket brings everything customers need under one roof, ensuring a convenient shopping experience for customers.
