ecommerce site in Tanzania

1 Kaymu (www.kaymu.co.tz)
Self-described as the #1 shopping community in Tanzania, it is the Tanzanian extension of the ecommerce platform launched by the African Internet Group in December 2012. Through Kaymu, individuals and businesses can sell their products online in a few steps.
#2: Kivuko (www.kivuko.com)
The Tanzanian online shopping gateway. It is one of the first ecommerce sites in Tanzania through which a wide variety of products are sold. Like Kaymu, it relies on vendors who can sign up through the site and advertise/sell their products through this platform. Multiple options are available for vendors at different pricing and functionalities.
#3: Jumia (www.jumia.co.tz)
The #1 online shopping mall of Tanzania. At the contrary of the first two, Jumia does not allow vendor registration but rather sell the products themselves (I guess they have a purchasing department that deal with vendors). Jumia originally was a Nigerian ecommerce startup which is now present in the UK and 10 African countries including Tanzania.
#4: Inauzwa (www.inauzwa.com)
A fast growing ecommerce platform in Tanzania where anyone can register and sell stuff in a matter of minutes.
#5: Shopping Tz (www.shopping.co.tz)
An online shopping website offering products from the UK primarily (or so they claim), mostly clothes, watches, flagrances etc.
Hope you will find this list useful. Ecommerce is a quickly evolving animal so this list is accurate as per the date of this post (September 2015), and may not be valid a couple of months from now.



Tanzania - E-Commerce
Describes how widely e-Commerce is used, the primary sectors that sell through e-commerce, and how much product/service in each sector is sold through e-commerce versus brick-and-mortar retail. Includes what a company needs to know to take advantage of e-commerce in the local market and , reputable, prominent B2B websites.

Last Published: 4/17/2016
E-Commerce is not widely used in the Tanzanian market.  In the private sector, e-business is growing, but is still in its infancy.  Very few private sector companies have established business-to-business websites, secure credentialing is still nascent, and very few buyers have internationally accepted credit cards.  However, m-commerce, via mobile phones, is growing rapidly.  The arrival of the SEACOM undersea fiber optic cable in July 2009, the completion of Phase I of the national terrestrial fiber backbone in June 2010, and the connection of the Eassy submarine cable from South Africa in August 2010 have increased opportunities in this area.
