Carmudi Nigeria is hosting car dealers in the country at Planet One, 3 Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, Maryland, Ikeja, Lagos, on the 17th of July 2014 at 3.00pm.
Hosted by Mohammed Iyamu, Head of Sales, Carmudi Nigeria, the forum dubbed ‘The Next Level’, aims to help car dealers using its platform to stay abreast of the developments in the automobile sector especially for them as dealers. Carmudi says it will “share our experience and innovation with them on issues that would allow them function better in the market.”
Backed by Rocket Internet, Carmudi.com.ng is an online market place for new and used cars in Nigeria and is present in over 15 other countries in Africa and claims over 30,000 unique automobile listings in Nigeria alone. The platform, running steadily behind One Africa Media’s Cheki says it wants to be an easy and accessible platform to allow customers search for their dream car all over Nigeria from the comfort of their home, offices and on mobile phones.
Meeting car dealers will be up the firm’s PR, and might help it connect with the car dealers locally and sign up more of them who are predominantly offline. With a population of over 170 million people, the Nigerian market is open for more players in verticals such as car, jobs, property and furniture. However, because the market is huge, it will also need a huge budget to reach and acquire customers.
Car classifieds such as Carmudi Nigeria verify and ok all dealers and sellers on their site to ensure trust and curb fraud, which is lacked amongst buyers and sellers.
