Briefwatch team:
What’s your motivation in opening builds.ng ?

Umeueje Chiamaka:

• As a young growing lady and entrepreneur I have come to realise that People waste their time, resources and search efforts when shopping for building products in physical stores. This is more difficult for career workers who may not have the time to source for these products due to busy schedule. We saw the pains people pass through and we were motivated to solve this problem. My over 8 years experiences in sales and supplies of these products offline have prepared me for this task. Our motivation was fueled by the fact that there was a little or no niche building materials e-commerce site in Nigeria at the time we started and was a big challenge for us to archive this.
