Jumia Kenya customers are set to enjoy free shopping of up to Sh300 and have it delivered to any address across the country at a small fee.

The move is aimed at encouraging more consumers to try e-commerce and discover a rewarding online shopping experience, according to the leading e-commerce platform.

“We welcome all Kenyans to download the Jumia App, and pick a product below Ksh 300 for free (you only pay shipping). To get the best value, select a pick up station near you,” said Jumia CEO Sam Chappatte.

He added, “E-commerce plays an important role in giving people access to basic and essential products at fair prices. We want more & more people to experience the service & see the convenience for themselves.”

Chappatte says this will help eliminate the perceived online buying barriers and encourage consumers to ‘Try Jumia for Free’.
