New Online Store Launches Soon
A new e-store, Ahonya.com will soon be introduced to Ghanaians to offer online shopping services to them.
Online shopping has been a major issue for internet users in Ghana due to a number of reported cases of fraud and the lack of a convenient way to pay.
But with the availability of mobile money and various online payment services, the stage is now set for Ghana's e-commerce sector to boom.
Ahonya.com offers a wide range of brand new electronics to the Ghanaian market. It has partnered with suppliers all over the world to provide genuine products at reasonable prices.
'We understand that online shopping is new in Ghana and we provide a simple to use interface. We also have a mobile site for the large number of mobile users in Ghana. Everything that can be done on the main website can also be done on the mobile site,' Gerard Yitamkey, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ahonya.com commented, adding that 'we are thrilled to offer a unique online shopping experience for the people of Ghana.'
According to him, Ahonya has optimized every step of the process to ensure that it provides an intuitive and fulfilling experience.
'With so many satisfied customers in our tests, we are confident of providing an important service that saves time and reduces costs. We have over 300 different products listed on the site and we are going to have more than 1000 by the end of the month.'
Mr. Yitamkey additionally noted that Ahonya.com offers home and office delivery services through courier services to all parts of Ghana. And it takes two days for most items to be delivered anywhere in Ghana.
Products from suppliers outside Ghana, mainly in the USA, the UK and China take 7 to 10 days.
'We are happy to say despite shipping charges and taxes, our prices are lower than most shops in Ghana, and the most important thing is, we sell only genuine items. All products come with a one year limited warranty and products can be returned in seven days after delivery if there are defects. Also, payment can be made with MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money and Mpower Payments.
Customers can also pay by depositing cash in Ahonya Limited's bank account and could get up to 80 percent discounts on shipping through their shop abroad programme.
