Condom Delivery Service Launched in Nairobi

A Kenyan businesswoman has opened a condom delivery business in Nairobi.

Faith Ndiwa launched her business a few weeks ago and has 15 employees who deliver condoms in motorbikes to her clients throughout Nairobi, at a cost of $3.50 for a pack of three.

The condoms are usually delivered by motorbike to beat Nairobi's notorious traffic jams but on Valentine's Day, two limousines decorated with red flowers were used for some customers.

Faith tells BBC she started the business after losing some close friends to AIDS, adding that most people are too embarassed to buy condoms from stores. "Most of them died of Aids because they shied off buying condoms," she says.

She says she already has 4,000 clients,  men and women, and will expand her business to Mombasa, Kisumu and Eldoret.
