“Everything on our website is done in realtime, therefore unlike several website purporting to be online shopping malls but in actual sense are online classifieds, www.rmart.com.gh allows the customer to sit in the comfort of his room and by the click of a mouse place an order for product, pay online and receive delivery of the product via our courier partners,” DJoe Dzitse, Chief Operating Officer told TechMoran.

With competition from ZoobaShop and Ahonya Rmart says it aims to be the biggest online mall in the country with its over 30 registered shops selling through on its platform. With fear of fraud online, the firm is ensuring customer protection by making sure all payments by customers are held in escrow until the delivery company confirms delivery of the product to the customer after which payment is remitted to the vendor.
