E-commerce’s growth in Nigeria amid a tense economic atmosphere is extremely encouraging, showing there is definitely hope for a brighter, non-oil reliant Nigerian economy. I wonder when Buhari's administration would wake up to its responsibility and come to aid of other sectors before it becomes worse.

How are they able to sustain these affordable prices and keep up with the discounts despite the consistent decline of the Naira? Are they packaging counterfeited products online to sell to Nigerians? How are they able to negotiate with sellers in the market place to make sure they arrive at competitive prices?

For me, I think they are still holding the fort well, but I wonder how long it will take them before they get to that point.

So i was trying to buy a couple of items and I decided to compare prices. I will let my screen shots do the talking This is wat i saw

Really ?

Hmmmm..... it seems Konga is affected more

I hope Federal Government and CBN come up with a lasting solution very fast

Fingers crossed! Eating my popcorn.

The sonner will turn to other things like farming, ecommerce and entrepreneurship. The better for everyone.

Buhari should be given time. He has barely spent a year. Things would get better.

can't see the prices on the Jumia pictures, but you might want to consider the fact that some Jumia merchants are currently complaining about slow updates to prices on their storefronts.

Don't be deceived by those price ,most of those item prices has not been updated or not even available .
Most sellers on Konga and Jumai have virtually abandoned their wares and don't even border to update the price any longer .Try to place order and u will wait till thy kingdom come for the goods to get to you .Who wan short for this kind economy recession period ?
I also have store on Konga and I know how the thing dey bite.

I own a store on Jumia, sales are okay for now but not very impressive.

I just got an AC from Jumia for an amazing 65K plus. Something that was selling for over 100K. I think they're doing much better than other ecommerce companies sha

Jumia prices still better anytime any day, the govt should just work on the exchange rate and let this hardship subside

Jumia has always had lower prices on products right from time. I always use pricecheck website to compare prices and know this as a fact.
Beside let me add that you can get free gifts with your Jumia shopping at http:///JUMIAorder-Freegifts when you shop at jumia.
