Online store, Kpakpakpamarket.com, has been awarded the emerging e-commerce platform of the year by GITTA award.

The GITTA Award is Ghana’s only platform for recognizing excellence in the ICT industry.

The award is the most respected accolade in the industry, celebrating excellence in innovation, product development and service delivery as more businesses make the step towards online retail in response to consumers increasing demand for convenience and choice.

Taking its name after the famous kpakpakpa slogan, the latest multi-brand online marketing platform joins more than a dozen online stores in operation in the country with many consumers tipping Kpakpakpamarket.com to take over the e-commerce sector.

Online trading in Ghana is still at a nascent stage, yet has huge development potential as the government’s policy support has further whetted the interest of prospective investors.

Promoters of the kpakpakpamarket.com say they are poised to lead the charge of the country’s discounters as cash-strapped shoppers become more price conscious about what they buy.

The platform offers companies, retailers, merchants and small scale traders an e-market platform to advertise and sell products in the most convenient hustle free environment via the internet.

The portal works on the click and brick model with the products being ordered online, and Kpakpakpamarket’s partners - its dealers, distributors, and logistics teams helping in delivery.

Kpakpakpamarket.com, which retails both new and old items as well as as-it-is ones, is the first platform that now allows consumers to bid for items and when an offer is accepted, the product is delivered directly to the consumer before payment is made. 

Additionally, the newest online prides itself on being the online discount market of choice in Ghana.

“This is our drive. By passing on the discounts we agree on with our registered suppliers/merchants unto our buyers, we encourage bulk or wholesale purchases, thus creating a win-win-environment for the buyer and the seller. By this approach we are able to also assure our buyers of genuine products and eliminating fraud,” a statement from the company said.

The statement from the company noted that by adding discounted inventory to its growing database of heavily discounted products, a seller can be assured of traffic to the products.

“Do not miss out on this great opportunity to advertise and sell products. Join this high-speed marketing train to sell your goods and services. Listing is Free. All you need to do to list your products on kpakpakpamarket.com.”
