Gloo.ng, one of Nigeria’s ecommerce platforms has announced the expansion of its services by investing in a new Customer Fulfillment Center (CFC) that covers 20,000 square feet. With the facility, the platform said it would be able to improve its market visibility and record growth.
The CFC is the place where the platform would store its online retail products to allow for proper processing and delivery of customers’ orders. The company is relocating to the new location which is four times bigger than its current 5,000 square feet centre.
Founder and Chief Executive Officer, of the platform, Dr. Olumide Olusanya, said that the expansion became necessary because of the growth the firm witnessed since it was commercially launched just a little over a year ago.
In addition to consolidating on growth, he said the platform had to make necessary inroads into securing stronger growth pace in year 2014.
He said: “These are the reasons why Gloo.ng needed to acquire more space for operations to guaranty sustenance of the legendary service the brand has become known and trusted for.
“The expansion was financed by well-meaning Nigerians that have bought into the vision of building Nigeria’s biggest supermarket with the backing of technology.”
