In the bustling world of real estate and relocation services in Kenya, two remarkable women stand out: Fiona and Raila, the driving force behind Fastrack. Their journey began in the early 2000s when fate, and perhaps a shared love for tea, brought them together through their husbands’ friendship.

Fiona: A blend of British charm and Kenyan spirit, Fiona brings over 25 years of estate agency experience to the table. Hailing from Zambia originally, she’s a master of the art of selling, capable of convincing anyone to buy even the coldest of commodities. With her husband’s business often taking her on safari adventures, Fiona’s eye for detail and knack for negotiation make her the go-to person for property viewings.

Raila: Finnish by origin but with a heart entrenched in Kenya, Raila’s journey reads like a novel of international diplomacy. Having spent a considerable part of her life in the country, she’s no stranger to its intricacies. With a background in embassy, UN, and EU work, Raila played a pivotal role in setting up Fastrack’s relocation services. These days, she’s the brains behind lease preparations, invoices, and marketing endeavors. And though she may have dabbled in banking once upon a time, Raila’s true passion lies in the game of Bridge.

Both Fiona and Raila share not only a thriving business partnership but also the joys and challenges of raising three children, now almost fully fledged and off pursuing their own adventures. In their moments of respite, they find solace in activities as diverse as safari excursions and Bridge tournaments, with a common love for coffee-fueled marathon meetings where the world’s problems are dissected alongside work discussions.

As their children take flight into the world, Fiona and Raila find themselves at the precipice of new beginnings. With their newfound time and energy, they eagerly anticipate the launch of Fastrack’s new website and the promising horizons of bigger, better opportunities.

Join us as we follow Fiona and Raila on their journey of entrepreneurship, parenthood, and the pursuit of excellence in the dynamic realm of real estate and relocation services.
