Kenyan billionaire Tahir Sheikh Said, popularly known as TSS, built a business empire that spanned several sectors. His business interests included buses, Unga Millers and the TSS Tower in Mombasa. Through these investments, TSS became known for owning businesses and assets across different sectors.
The billionaire’s empire included a bus business, Unga Millers and the TSS Tower. These businesses and assets formed part of the business empire associated with Tahir Sheikh Said, popularly known as TSS. His ownership of Unga Millers, buses and the TSS Tower placed these interests among the notable parts of his business empire.
However, the business empire later faced a major debt crisis. Various banks called in loans owed by the businesses associated with TSS. The loans called in by the banks amounted to more than KSh8 billion. The debt crisis therefore became a major challenge for the business empire built by Tahir Sheikh Said.
The KSh8 billion-plus debt crisis came after TSS had built an empire involving buses, Unga Millers and the TSS Tower in Mombasa.
