E-commerce giant Konga is scheduled to launch Konga Bulk, a new solution targeted at the channel and SMEs in Nigeria, on 21 September 2020.

The company describes Konga Bulk as a new innovation and solution that offers manufacturers, distributors, resellers as well as SMEs access to a range of assets.

These assets include secure regional warehouses, smart offices, cutting-edge technology, advanced logistics capabilities through an internally-owned subsidiary, Kxpress and its Central Bank of Nigeria-licensed payment platform known as KongaPay.

In a statement Kong explained: “By allocating physical office and warehouse spaces to partner businesses and placing its many other cutting-edge assets at their disposal, Konga is ushering many into the new normal by bringing succour to corporate entities, many of whom have been encumbered by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Furthermore, Konga Bulk will play a very important role, bridging the gap to genuine products and services between manufacturers, distributors, resellers, bulk buyers and consumers. Resellers and other bulk buyers can also take advantage of best prices available for genuine products exclusively through Konga Bulk.”

Kalu Johnson, Vice President, Strategic Business, said : “Konga Bulk is a very ambitious project which we have positioned as the new normal. It is a unique opportunity for manufacturers to take advantage of the huge assets and real estate, both physical and virtual, available at Konga.

“We have invested significantly and strategically in various areas of our operations. Today, Konga owns arguably the largest single warehouse space in Lagos in addition to other similar massive infrastructure in other parts of the country such as Onitsha, Port Harcourt, Uyo, Abuja, Owerri and other locations,” he added.

According to Johnson businesses have to find a way to rebound from the challenges presented by COVID-19 and Konga Bulk represents an innovation to help provide a way out, by removing the worry for businesses of having to invest in their own office or warehouse space, or in logistics, payment solution, technology and marketing etc.
