I think the words are "customers can chose". I would still prefer Wells Fargo over Posta any day. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Only 5m of kenya's 40m population lives in nairobi. Surely the posta network (EMS) is very well placed to enable serving the other 35m potential customers. Therefore someone in lodwar, migori, mandera, lungalunga etc will conveniently shop online and get their parcels delivered to them.

Youll note very few upcountry deliveries. Theyre just trying to get rid of that part of the business. Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

But now the problem is solved with the posta partnership. There are huge markets in towns such as mombasa, kisumu, malindi, nakuru, kitale, eld etc.

What do you mean by they are trying to get lid of that part when they are partnering with Posta to deliver to all parts of the country?

This is a new direction in providing a stress-free, safe and convenient shopping experience,” said Jumia Kenya managing director Parinaz Firozi Monday.

The last time I checked, @Mawinder is an Elder and not a User. I am, therefore, wondering why this thread is Green (SKende) as opposed to either Red (Market) or Orange (SME)

I was thinking of selling some goods over their platform. Does anyone know what percentage they charge as commission over goods sold?
About the delivery, these guys already have an efficient system for drop-offs. In the Nairobi CBD they even do building to building deliveries. I don't think the Posta deal is aimed at urbanites.
