Benefitting from the Black Friday Sales in Nigeria

One of the top online stores in Nigeria, Konga, is prepared to give customers great value for their money this year.

Unlike their equally popular counterpart, Jumia, that will resume sales by 12 midnight of the Black Friday, on November 28, Konga will begin its deals a day ahead on Thursday, November 27, which has been tagged "Yakata Sales"

The word "Yakata" is a Nigerian pidgin word that means "abundance," and it has been adopted by Konga to describe its own version of the Black Friday event. It is a time when the online store showcases its most spectacular deals on all of its items in stock. It is one of the biggest online sales event in Nigeria.

Last year was exceptionally good for the website, as it made record sales, with customers clearing out all available stock.
