Cokodeal is a marketplace e-commerce service that connects traders in Africa to the world. It is headquartered in Nigeria with reg no: 1165256. [1] The service helps connect African traders and customers. [2] With Cokodeal, individual users, organizations and businesses can create online stores to market African manufactured goods and services. [3] Its founders partnered with Neoteric, [4] a UK enterprise, to handle its development and support. Presently, its major trading is in Ghana, Nigeria, Tanzania, South Africa, and Kenya. [5] Cokodeal is an avenue for African traders to meet global customers and make deals. [6]
Cokodeal was founded in 2012 by Mike Dola [7] and launched in 2014. It used Nigeria as an entry point to Africa, [8] then expanded to other African countries.
cokodeal.com took part in the US$1 million SpeedUPAfrica bootcamp held in Accra, hosted by DraperDarkFlow, 500startups, Singularity University. [9]
Cokodeal created a pan-Africa commodity bank, as a platform that alleviates the challenges faced by people in Europe and other parts of the world in finding African traders [10] and African produced goods and services. It aims to find businesses, products, goods and location. [11]
Cokodeal is designed to promote solely African local content, [12] i.e. African manufactured goods and services such as agricultural products, textile, crafts, art works, machines, and minerals. Cokodeal facilitates African traders meeting customers, [13] and connects African traders to Africa and global markets. [14] It aims to solve some social challenges [15] and enables SMEs and businesses to leverage on its platform to save cost and reach new markets. [16] It serves as a market linkage for African businesses to trade internationally and develop its local content. [17]
Nigeria business owners can market their made-in-Nigeria goods on cokodeal to access new markets. [18] However, the platform needs improvement in its layers and design layout. [19]
In recent economic times with the crash of oil derivatives in the global market, the diversification goal for African countries has become a core need. Cokodeal has supported government Ministries, Development and Agencies (MDAs) to get procurement by sourcing international buyers for local producers, [20] and also for international buyers. [21]
