When I was young,Kisumu didn’t really have any malls by then.Swan Centre was the only place that was bustling with life enough and I decided to make it my mall.We used to come and hang around with my friends as well pass time.It is located along Oginga Odinga road. Now I probably know that this place is more of a business centre and nowhere close to a mall.It’s a simple complex that houses several business and restaurants. The architecture and structure is simple, not really much going around but at the centre you can see the top floors each decorated with a flower pot or two and when they all assemble they make the whole view nice.From the main entrance what welcomes you is a fast food restaurants that serves some simple delicious food.The aroma of fries is usually so evident when you pass by here.It’s a place for a touch and go meal and does not really offer alot in terms of ambiance and privacy .Swan Centre is home to Sumo Electronics and Cyber Cafe.This store deals in laptops,desktops, Printers and storage devices.It also offers services such as printing and photocopying .It also has a Just for your shop that deals in electronics especially those related to mobile phones. Another store here is Kisumu Lighting and decor. My favourite store in this place of course has to be Ideal world limited. It specialises in selling all your home supplies and the fixtures you’d need to give life and colour to your house. On the day I last visited this place was pretty empty.There were very few people around and most of the stores had not been opened .In comparison, this place has fewer business compared to other centres .Despite that,it still houses stores that provide some much needed services to people in Kisumu’s business center.
