Gaming shop is one of the most profitable businesses in Kenya. The capital required to start this kind of business range between Ksh 150,000 and Ksh1 million depending on location and the number of machines in your shop. The average price of one machine is Ksh20,000.
Your shop needs space where your clients will sit and play the games, it also needs security cameras because the machines are at a high risk of being stolen—they are in high demand. You also require at least 3 machines. A sizeable gaming shop in Kenya is stocked with 4 machines.
Here are the basic things your shop should have:
CCTV—Ksh10,000
4 gaming machines—Ksh100,000
Chairs and tables—Ksh 50,000
License—Ksh50,000
Miscellaneous- Ksh50,000
Rent—Ksh 40,000
Total capital required=Ksh 300,000
Don’t forget to hire a watchman even if your shop is installed with CCTV cameras.
With enough traffic, your four gaming machines will earn you up to Ksh 150,000 per month. There are almost zero chances of posting a loss.
