NAIROBI, Kenya, July 20 – Kenya Reinsurance Corporation (Kenya Re) plans to open offices in Tanzania and Rwanda as it steps up its expansion across East Africa.
The reinsurer has invited bids to lease office space in Dar es Salaam and Kigali, while also seeking a consultant to support the establishment of a liaison office in Rwanda.
The tender for office space in Dar es Salaam closes on August 7, 2026, while the Kigali office leasing tender and consultancy tender are also scheduled to close in August.
The corporation said interested firms can download the tender documents free of charge from its website and submit bids before the deadline.
“Prospective bidders may download the tender documents from the Kenya Reinsurance Corporation Limited website free of charge.”
Kenya Re said bidders must submit registration details through its procurement email to receive any clarifications or addenda issued during the tender process.
It added that bid prices should include all applicable taxes and remain valid for 120 days after the closing date.
“Any canvassing or giving of false information will lead to automatic disqualification. Tenders that are delivered after the submission deadline will be rejected.”
The planned expansion comes as insurers and reinsurers continue to grow their regional operations to tap into rising demand for insurance services, infrastructure investments and increased trade across East Africa.
