Our structure

We are continually adapting our onsite experience to meet the needs of our consumers and customers. This is core to remaining one of the best digital classified marketplace for new and used items in Nigeria.

The ecosystem we operate in:

The classified market is complex and often inefficient. There are multiple participants and unsurprisingly consumers can find the process of buying or selling an item overwhelming. Through Buy and Hire products, services and partnerships, we aim to significantly improve buying experience, as well as leverage our existing relationships to improve further parts of the value chain.
