Market Dynamics
Industry Overview
The e-commerce market in Africa is rapidly growing, driven by increasing internet and mobile penetration, a young and tech-savvy population, and rising disposable incomes. However, it faces challenges such as infrastructure limitations, logistical complexities, and low consumer trust in online shopping.
Positioning
Jumia is positioned as a leading e-commerce platform in Africa, aiming to provide a convenient and reliable online shopping experience. Its competitive advantages include its established brand, extensive logistics network, and diverse product offerings. However, it faces competition from local players and international giants like Amazon.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
The e-commerce TAM in Africa is estimated to be in the tens of billions of dollars and rapidly expanding.

Addressing these challenges can significantly increase Jumia's market capture.
