Nigeria’s largest online mall, Konga.com has kick-started its 3rd year anniversary celebrations with the announcement that it would partner Audax Solutions to train the next generation of computer programmers at the Audax Code School.

Beneficiaries of the Konga grant ages 9 – 16, would be selected by Audax from Public schools, orphanages and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs).

Audax Code School is an initiative of Audax Solutions which provides in-depth introduction to computer programming skills based on the fundamentals of web and mobile applicaions development. With the program, the children will be provided an in-depth introduction to computer programming skills based on the fundamentals of web and mobile applications development.

Olatomiwa Akande, Konga’s Head of Public Relations made the disclosure, and noted that the initiative was in line with the company’s vision “To utilise internet and mobile technologies to create a pan African platform that enables trade and commerce for millions of sellers and buyers…”.

Konga’s third year anniversary celebrations tagged,”#Konga BIG3’ was billed to hold all through the month of July.

Akande recounted some highlights of the company’s operations in Nigeria since it was founded by Sim Shagaya in July 2012, “Konga started by selling beauty, personal and baby care products to online shoppers in Lagos. The company grew quickly with the rapid expansion of product categories and geographic reach. Today Konga delivers products to every state in Nigeria and now has a massive array of over 200,000 products listed for sale on its site. We have a strong social media followership of close to 2 million people”.

According to Akande, “Konga truly has revolutionized the e-commerce industry in Nigeria with quality products at great prices, innovative offerings and unparalleled services to our customers across the country. Our multiple award winning company is growing rapidly with over 700 employees, offices in Lagos, South Africa and China; warehouses and distribution centers all over Nigeria. The expansion continues with a move to a bigger warehouse facility scheduled this July. This, will enable us cater more efficiently to the demands of our customers”.

Recently, Konga launched the “Self-Fulfill” delivery model, allowing merchants on the site to deliver items purchased to a customer directly, facilitating faster and easier delivery system. In order to quell the challenges associated with payment on delivery, Konga’s team developed a safe and secure payment platform, tagged KongaPay – which is scheduled for release to the public in the third quarter of 2015.

“We believe these milestones are indeed worthy of celebration for a company that has been in existence for only three years. We recognize that the trust and belief our customers and merchants have in Konga is the key reason we are able to recount this successes as a business; we are very grateful to Nigerians for embracing Konga and ecommerce as a whole” she said.

Other special activities lined up to celebrate the third anniversary with Konga’s customers, its over 15,000 merchants and other partners include 3 back to back sales events; ‘The Best of Marketplace’ sale from July 2 to 12, the ‘Anniversary Mega Sales’ between July 13 and 17 and the ‘Daily Deals Overdrive’ which will offer special product deals each day between July 13 and 31.
