It seems it’s a great year for Kenya’s youngest record label, Candy n Candy Records. Fresh from releasing its first ever movie, the Mombasa Road-based label has just landed a new deal that will see it run Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa’s night club, Club Rhythms.

According to sources, the deal was sealed in late January and final reports made last Friday and currently, renovations and general outlook estimated to cost Ksh3.5million have already started on the club which had ceased operations 6 months ago.

Speaking to Word Is, Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa’sFood and Beverage Manager Mike Kamau, revealed to that Candy n Candy CEO, Joe Kariuki, was given one month to showcase his event management skills and if successful the deal will be signed for a whole year.

“We received many interested partners including top recording labels but we only preferred Candy n Candy because of their seriousness in music industry, after a month of serious business we will then determine whether to give them a full signed agreement or we deal away with it”, Kamau revealed.

On his part, Joe is upbeat that he will nail the deal with the rich experience he has accumulated in event’s organization and management.
