Absa Bank Opens Its Kisumu Branch, Total Hits 87 Countrywide

Absa Bank Kenya has officially opened the doors to its newly refurbished branch in Kisumu City, marking a significant step in the Bank’s ongoing strategy for network expansion and modernization. Absa Bank now has 87 locations and multiple upgraded physical spaces designed for the future of banking.

The Kisumu branch will continue to provide essential services to both individual customers and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which are vital to the socio-economic development of the greater Western Kenya region.

The branch was officially re-opened during a week-long customer engagement session attended by a section of the Absa executive leadership team, covering areas such as Kisumu, Kisii, Mbale, Malaba, Webuye, and Kakamega. This initiative underscores our commitment to fostering relationships with our customers and supporting regional growth.

Speaking during a customer engagement event at the revamped Kisumu branch, Absa Bank Kenya’s Consumer Banking Director, Moses Muthui, highlighted Kisumu’s strategic importance as a key economic driver in East Africa. He noted that the city serves as a logistical hub, attracting business from neighboring Uganda and Tanzania and supporting a vibrant micro and small business community.

“This new-look branch is part of our commitment to a customer-centric strategy, enabling us to deliver financial services at the most convenient locations for our clients, while seamlessly integrating our physical presence with mobile and internet banking options,” Mr. Muthui said. “This reflects Absa’s dedication to supporting and empowering customers in their financial journeys.”

In line with its broader growth strategy, Absa Bank Kenya is focused on enhancing customer experience through the expansion of dynamic touchpoints and improvements in service efficiency. The newly designed Kisumu branch prioritizes customer convenience, acting as a central location for personal and SME banking support, digital services, and financial advisory, all provided by a dedicated in-branch team.
