DHL brings Africa eShop to 20 countries in a competitive nod to Jumia

DHL

is expanding its DHL Africa eShop business to 9 additional markets, upping the presence of the global shipping company’s e-commerce platform to 20 African countries.

DHL went live with the digital retail app in April, bringing more than 200 U.S. and U.K. sellers — from Neiman Marcus to Carters — online to African consumers.

Africa eShop

operates using startup MallforAfrica.com’s white label fulfillment service, Link Commerce.

Payment methods include local fintech options, such as Nigeria’s Paga and Kenya’s M-Pesa.
