From the creators of the hit show Single Kiasi comes a gripping new crime drama, The Chocolate Empire.
Set against the backdrop of Nairobi’s elite circles, Chocolate Empire follows JB Mauzo, played by the multitalented Jimmy Gathu (Kina), a once-powerful businessman freshly released from prison. As JB works to rebuild his life and mend his fractured family, he secretly operates a high-end escort service from his exclusive cigar club. His clandestine empire and personal life collide when he meets Lily, played by Ann Muli (A Familiar Christmas). A young woman from a struggling family, she takes a job at JB’s club to help her mother make ends meet, unaware of the illegal operations that are taking place.
The stacked cast also includes Kalasha winners Sanaipei Tande (Kina) and Mumbi Maina (Second Family, The Matrix Resurrections, Sense8), as well as Kalasha nominee Jackie Kaboi (Single Kiasi).
All the episodes for The Chocolate Empire are available to binge on Showmax.
