Garage fire a wake-up call on why motor trader insurance matters
Several vehicles pictured on September 8, 2026 that were destroyed in a fire that broke out last night at a garage located off Ole Dume Road in Kilimani, Nairobi, resulting in heavy financial losses.
When a fire reportedly destroyed more than 50 vehicles at a garage, many Kenyans understandably focused on one question: who will pay for the loss? That question matters.
But as the Association of Kenya Insurers, we believe the incident should also prompt a broader conversation about preparedness, responsibility and the role of insurance as a tool for resilience for both customers and garage businesses.
