The skyline of Nakuru soared several feet higher in August 2016 following the completion and opening of the city’s tallest building yet by the Gilanis Group of Companies.

The commercial block, which is known as Tower One, is strategically located on Moi Road next to the central post office – a location that allows easy access to key areas of the town.

The building has three levels of parking space, two levels of retail space and a further nine levels of grade A office space.
