Property owners and dealers in Kigali will have to align their business models to target emerging local brands to take up rental space, as government, which has been a key client, is building its own offices with the aim of cutting down on rental expenses.

The government is a preferred tenant because it takes up space for lengthy periods and is reliable in terms of payments, making it easier for the property owner to access credit.
