In his words, Nnamdi said, “We have spent the last year restructuring the business and positioning it on a very solid footing. This is evident from the huge strides we have recorded over the period and the several other viable business units and subsidiaries that have taken flight within the Konga Group. Indeed, we are preparing to lead in this space.”

Konga has successful launched Konga Travels and Tours, a travel booking industry. They also have other approved projects and new lines of businesses that are waiting to be unveiled. The e-commerce company currently operates about 16 physical stores and hubs in Lagos, Nigeria.
