E-commerce is as we know it, is the business of buying and selling goods via the internet. Those ads you see on Facebook, Instagram and other social media platforms or while reading a website, telling you to guy a set of goods for a discount are tools used by players in the e-commerce space. What are the roles of E-commerce companies in Nigeria?
Well, that’s easy – They enable and facilitate the buying and selling of goods (e-commerce) in Nigeria through their websites on the internet. While some of them such as Jiji are basically just facilitators in that they simply enable vendors to market and teach large customer bases, some others not only facilitate e-commerce but are also vendors in themselves as they market and sell products of their own as well.
Types of E-commerce:
There are quite several e-commerce types or models but four majors ones stand out the most. These are:
- B2C – Business to Customer: As the name implies, this is basically a model of the business offering goods and services to the customer.
- B2B – Business to Business: This is a model of the business offering goods and services to another business more like in a supplier manner.
- B2A – Business to Administration: This is an e-commerce model of a business supplying of offering good and services to the administration or the government. These are usually under the radar though.
