It is simply called re branding |

It's really quite disturbing that they are changing names very quickly considering what they have so far spent in branding kasuwa.com. In any case, I wish them the best of luck! 1 Like |

Kasuwa means market (in Hausa Language) Jumia is a Muslim name |

Very annoying people. They will be deceiving people with their free deliveries, etc. I bought a dvd from them. It took them over 2 months to deliver. What helped me remain calm was that i had chosen the option to pay at point of delivery. I kept calling them and it was from one failed promise to the other, some were outright lies. When they finally delivered, they did not even call to know if someone would be home. My gateman called me when i was in the market and my family had gone for the weekend that someone was looking for me. I pitied that DHL guy cos he had to wait till i got home (which was like 3 hrs wait). Bottom line, I won't touch them with a ten foot pole whatever their names are. 4 Likes |

blank: Very annoying people. They will be deceiving people with their free deliveries, etc. Lol You can't really blame them, though. They are pioneering (not exactly, but kind of) in the Nigerian market and the logistics are far from being perfect at the moment. Until they have a critical mass of customers, it's going to be very difficult for them to deliver on their promises at the right time. At the same time, it would be very difficult for them to sell if they don't promise the same kind of services provided in more mature markets. So, it's a catch 22 situation. With time (and competition), I think the situation will improve. 1 Like |

Went with smartbuy. I ordered Friday and received Monday. Thank God I saw this now. I am definitely not going near them. |

blank: Very annoying people. They will be deceiving people with their free deliveries, etc. That probably tells you why they are rebranding too soon! I thought Kasuwa makes more sense that Jumia, but what do I know? |

Are the owners related to the dealfish/kalahari freaks? Common behavioral trend. Get a brainwave > pump money into the brainwave > create a brand via Google Adwords > Jam reality > Accept the harsh reality > Rebrand/Die/Merge > Damage control telling the world how wow everything will be now that it has "evolved" or gone through a "rebrand". Am I the only one wondering when Mocality will die? It looks like the next in line. 6 Likes |

Drlumi: I have used dealdey and they also just started yet their services are superb just that they are not really into electronics. As for Kasuwa, nothing anybody in this world will say will make me use them even if they change their name. I bought the dvd as a gift cos i wanted to save small cost as they were giving a discount. Had to buy something else and also wasted my credit in the process. Bunch of liars. |

Dual Core: Are the owners related to the dealfish/kalahari freaks? Common behavioral trend. Guy you harsh ooo. But then you are right on point. Nigerian government needs to create policies that will help serious minded local businesses and prevent unhealthy competition from strong foreign businesses. |
Re: Online Shop, Kasuwa Rebrands To Jumia by Chrisvicmall: 5:23pm On Aug 16, 2012 |
I hope they stay strong. Every mans dream is to run a successful business. Hope they fix their act together. Anyway, for guys that want to have their own online store without stress, know when someone is buying your product, pay your services online, or purchase things from stores in Nigeria, Usa, China or any where around the globe, check out chrisvicmall.com which provides you with all these features. Hope you guys will like it |
Re: Online Shop, Kasuwa Rebrands To Jumia by DualCore1: 5:25pm On Aug 16, 2012 |
^^ not the Government. Google Adwords should put policies on the age of a domain and the amount it can spend per day running ads. How can you create a domain today and immediately pump 200 Dollars per day into ads? ...Just an instance. |

People telling tales of 2month old orders. Very funny. Facts: Jumia will not delay a delivery for two months. It is virtually impossible. Jumia didn't even have a books category two months ago. If your order is delayed past the maximum delivery time promised, call customer care. If you're still not satisfied, or if the occasion for the 'gift'-giving has passed, simply cancel your order. If your product is faulty, invoke the Jumia warranty. It's very simple. The need to rebrand was borne out of incredible growth, not a slowdown. Jumia nigeria is now part of an international brand just like Jumia Egypt etc., all under the Rocket internet umbrella. That means more liberty to diversify product offerings and expand across other African countries. At 1.8million visits within three months and 20,000 visitors daily, there's no better sign of growth. |

Do you think you are talking to an illiterate? I bought a book as well as the dvd. Did u miss where I stated that I called them on numerous occasions but they kept on telling me lies? Even after they changed their number from a mobile number to a landline nos. I sent a stinker of a mail yet no response. Since you work there, I will send you my order number so you can check if I am lying. Although I know you will switch it around cos everytime I called they kept on trying to make it seem like I had just placed the order when I had placed it long before then. |

For your info, I am a dissatisfied customer and I am definitely going to spread your bad news and discourage people I know from using your service cos y'all plain incompetent. No one called to apologise, I was the one making all the calls. |
