Hi everyone!

Just moved to Nairobi about a week ago, still finding my feet here!
Still trying to finalise my work permit, is it hard or easy for South Africans?
Also, is there any place we can get South African products?
Happy to be here, hope to meet some of you lot soon!

Hi,  As far as I know the work permit process is similar, wherever you are from and takes around 3 months.

I have seen South African foods stocked in Nakumatt; Biltong, Bokomo cereals, Knorr, for example.  Difficult to answer your question, unless I know what particular items you are looking for.
