About Us
Who We Are
Our Heritage, Values, and Commitment to Excellence in Every Endeavor
Founded in May 1982 by the late Mzee Durlabhram Khetia (D.S. Khetia), Khetia Drapers Ltd began as a modest wholesale shop in Kitale, Kenya. With just two employees and a single pickup, we served rural communities—planting the seeds of a business that would grow into one of Kenya’s leading retail and distribution brands.
Over the decades, we have evolved through innovation and perseverance—opening our first supermarket in 1994, launching GigaMart in 2005, and expanding nationwide with branches across key cities including Nairobi, Eldoret, and Kisumu.
Today, Khetia Drapers Ltd remains proudly family-owned and operated by the Khetia family. Our leadership continues to reflect the vision and values passed down by our founder: integrity, hard work, customer focus, and deep-rooted community commitment.
Our legacy is more than business—it’s a mission to deliver excellence and build stronger, more vibrant communities across Kenya.
