The Wealth List Publishes Interview with Entrepreneur Nouho M Kanneh on Family, Faith and Business Growth

UPPER DARBY, PA, UNITED STATES, November 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Wealth List has published a wide-ranging interview with Philadelphia-area entrepreneur Nouho M Kanneh, whose estimated net worth of $37 million appeared in the publication’s updated entrepreneur net worth rankings this week. In the interview, Kanneh discusses his upbringing in Liberia, his family, and the businesses behind the portfolio: Presto Real Estate, Uncle Mussa Grocery, an Amazon e-commerce operation, a Sunoco service station, and a wholesale auto business he has operated since 2013.

Asked about the national coverage of the rankings, Kanneh credited faith and consistency. “I don’t chase attention — I chase the work,” he said. “Nothing about my story says this was supposed to happen. It happened because of God’s favor, consistency, and never stopping.”

Kanneh was born in Liberia and came to the United States in the early 2000s. He describes an upbringing shaped by his mother, Mariam, whose sacrifices he calls the foundation of his work ethic. “My mother is my backbone,” he said. “She suffered a lot — more than people will ever know — and she carried this family through it without ever breaking.” His father runs his own grocery store in Philadelphia. Of his sisters, Fatim and Mimi, he said: “My sisters are my world. A big part of why I work the way I do is the hope that one day we all get to just enjoy it — together, in peace.”

His business path began with a small contracting business in the early 2000s, followed by Uncle Mussa Grocery in 2011, which serves the West African and Haitian communities in Upper Darby and Philadelphia. He founded Presto Real Estate in 2015, added an Amazon e-commerce operation and a Sunoco service station in 2023, and has bought and sold cars wholesale at auction since 2013. “One income stream is a risk,” he said. “Five is a portfolio.”

On the published $37 million estimate, compiled from public business filings, property records and company records, Kanneh was measured: “A number is a number. The day you start believing your own headline is the day you stop building.”

At home, Kanneh says life is quieter than people imagine. He remains hands-on in the stores daily, and he and his wife, Lule, were recently married; the couple has a young son. Looking ahead, he points to expansion of the grocery business under a new chapter and continued growth of the portfolio: “The goal was never just money — it’s to build things that last, for my family and my community.”
