Just like Amazon, Aliexpress, and eBay, there abound numerous online shopping stores in Nigeria. Nigerians no longer need\u00a0to worry about the high exchange rate of the dollar, as these local shops trade in naira and render services relatively okay.<\/p>\n

Although transacting with some\u00a0online shopping stores in\u00a0Nigeria could be risky, due to poor\/delayed delivery services, poor customer service, fake fashion\/designers items and\u00a0unethical practices, it is quite convenient to shop online than to visit an actual market.<\/p>\n

According to an online shopping report by Philips Consulting, online shopping in Nigeria records about \u20a6 1.3 billion worth of transactions monthly and not less than 500 orders are placed in a day with each retailer nationwide.<\/p>\n

Also, it has been reported that within the last two\u00a0years, investors put in a whopping sum of\u00a0over \u20a6 205 billion into the eCommerce industry in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Looking at how lucrative this business is, a lot more online stores are springing up every day, but not\u00a0all of them have great standards and are reliable to shop with. There are currently over a hundred online stores in Nigeria today but unfortunately, 90% of online shoppers patronize only a tiny segment\u00a0of these stores\u00a0and\u00a0according to Phillips consulting, 38% of Nigerians actually prefer online shopping to the traditional in-store shopping.<\/p>\n

This list was put together based on the following criteria: the activities on\u00a0each stores’ social media community, the number of visitors to its website, review by customers, professionalism, website design and usability, quality of products on display and quality of the actual product, reliability, delivery speed and other factors.<\/p>\n
