LAGOS – Africa’s leading e-commerce platform, Jumia Nigeria, held a vendors’ conference over the weekend at Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos, in preparation for its 10th-Anniversary Sale which officially starts on 14th June – 3rd July.

The teams shared insights, plans and strategies for the upcoming 10th-Anniversary Sales Campaign and other efficient ways to improve the overall business.

According to a release e-signed and made available to StarTrend Int’l & online – www.startrendinternational.com by Oluchi Eze, Media Executive, PR REDLINE, Jumia committed to use several marketing strategies, including billboards, radio, influencers, social media campaigns and games to create awareness on the anniversary sale.

There were also calls to leverage Jumia Advertising for more visibility to their stores, Jumia Logistics for convenient delivery across Nigeria and JumiaPay for safe and seamless payments. The event’s highlight was when the Jumia anniversary video was played with noticeable excitement from the vendors who were eager to have it downloaded to their phones.

Over the past decade, Jumia has partnered with forward-thinking businesses and brands to create an impact across key value chains, providing convenience and better shopping experiences for consumers. Furthermore, we have created limitless opportunities for SMEs to grow, which has had a positive impact on the economy.

I started my business on the platform over 5 years ago from literally nothing to being one of the top phone vendors,” said Abdul-Hafeez Olayinka, Owner of Bafur Store.
