We are the Dawoodi Bohra community of Nakuru

The Dawoodi Bohra community in Nakuru, Kenya, has a meaningful and growing presence, marked by deep-rooted values, entrepreneurial spirit, and close ties to the city. The Bohras initially settled in Nakuru during the early 1960s, where they established a modest community centre that, over time, has blossomed into a significant spiritual hub. 

Today, 36 Bohra families reside in and around Nakuru, mainly within the peaceful and scenic masjid complex area near the Menengai Crater in Milimani. Members of the community are distinguished business owners, leading in the region’s glass and hardware industries, as well as industrial ventures in plastic piping, tanks, and steel. They actively engage in large construction projects, particularly in real estate. Other community members run popular bakeries and restaurants, while some work as auditors, pilots, and medical professionals.
