E-commerce was not built on the foundation of pay on delivery. That is a Nigerian thing because we do not have trust for ourselves.

The best products to sell online to the Nigerian market are services and subscriptions. I have been enjoying less fuss since I switched from products to services.

I guess that can't be marketed on jumia or konga, which site can one do that pls

Many of the products are from China, this is the best place to source for inventory because the whole world imports from China. The problem is, who are you relying on to do your shopping for you, being Vendors selling on Konga and Jumia.
