The campaign is aimed at bringing bigger and better bargains to Rupu customers across Nairobi, this half of the month of May.

In a statement the General Manager at Rupu, James Gathere said, “The Rupu Mad May-hem is our way of running one of Kenya’s first online sales with amazing discounts of up to 80%.

If you’re looking to book the ultimate holiday, get half-priced tickets to Nairobi’s biggest events or simply fulfill your daily shopping needs from the comfort of your home, get on to rupu.co.ke

Mad-mayhem follows Rupu’s “Green November” that saw thousands of shoppers flock the site to buy stuff and as well helped the firm partner with over 1,000 businesses in the country within 6 weeks. This cemented Rupu’s position as East Africa’s Number 1 ecommerce platform.

Rupu Mad-Mayhem will feature hundreds of deals from major shopping malls, Nairobi’s top rated restaurants, fun activities including wall climbing, bungee jumping, ice skating, paintball and much more.

Businesses taking part in the campaign will also benefit from this exciting advertising platform which aims to market their products and services to millions of Kenyans across the country.

Founded in 2010, Rupu is Kenya’s largest and most successful discount online shop with more than 75,000 customers each day looking for electronics, restaurants, travel, wellness and entertainment. Rupu was named as one of the “Top 20 Start-ups in Africa”, by Forbes Magazine in 2012.
