Nigeria’s leading e-commerce platform, Jumia, said it would deepen e-commerce in the country over the next decade by focusing on customer needs, quality of goods and services, pricing and trust at the heart of its business.

Jumia co-CEO and co-founder, Jeremy Hodara, who stated this on Wednesday in Lagos at a ceremony to mark the company’s 10 years of e-commerce in Nigeria, said the next chapter is about bettering the lives of its customers and partners.

The celebration was attended by key stakeholders of Jumia’s ecosystem including consumers, sellers, partners and communities. It also had panel sessions exploring the future of the logistics’ sector in Nigeria, e-commerce as the future of retail in Nigeria and the evolution of payment systems.

Hodara, said, “Nigeria has always had a special place in the business of Jumia; this is where we started, and we always said if we can make it here, we can make it anywhere in Africa, which has proven true. With that in mind, we don’t take for granted where we are today.

“Ten years ago, no one believed e-commerce could work, but we are here today and what we have always been proud of at Jumia is that we are a marketplace. We don’t do everything ourselves, we do it with our partners – we are not only proud of where Jumia is but where the entire ecosystem of e-commerce is in Nigeria,” he added.

Earlier in his opening remark, the CEO, Jumia Nigeria, Massimiliano Spalazzi said, the company started from a small house in Lekki, “but we knew very well what we wanted to achieve, which today still stands as the number one company value at Jumia – to improve people’s lives through the internet and enabling our partners, vendors and logistics agencies to do better and do more business together with customers.”
