Global Perspective

The 4th Industrial Revolution ….

• Davos Summit in Switzerland gave a glimpse into the future of business: The digital revolution …

• driven by new technology that will positively impact everything that we do from now on

• virtually all business will be driven by the Internet, going forward.

• From pilotless aircraft and cars (drones in Rwanda)

• to automated healthcare diagnostics and medical prescriptions (and drug fulfilments),

• driven from the convergence of the Internet and one’s smart phone. Inspired by Sim Shagaya, CEO Konga

Macroeconomic Context • The focus of the Nigerian Leadership is the relegation of the economy’s

dependence on foreign products while increasing local participation in trade and manufacturing.

• Banning of 41 items from the forex market and

• subtle devaluation of the currency for consumption purposes; while retaining the current official exchange rate for industrial purposes.

“We will no longer allow our markets to be flooded with things we can produce ourselves. We must believe in our system.” - President Buhari

In the News


Key Sectors of the Economy

Characteristically, the key sectors of the economy are informal and subsistent Trade

•15% of the GDP; a significant share of total trade is informal and for subsistence; it is also highly fragmented; driven by foreign products

Agriculture•22% of the GDP, hugely informal and highly fragmented; difficulty in sourcing agro products as Nigeria’s agricultural sector is highly fragmented and dominated by small-hold farmers. •About 70 percent of Nigerian farmers are considered small scale (<2 ha), 25 percent midscale (2-10ha), and 5 percent large scale (>10ha).

Solid minerals

•hugely informal, production is subsistent. 80% to 85% of current mining activities in Nigeria is informal, via artisanal and small scale mining. •Official figures indicate that quarry activities dominate the sub-sector, however official figures are devoid of the huge, informal and small scale activities that are carried out. Nigeria has over 40 different kinds of latent solid minerals and precious metals.


We believe Nigeria’s local production would improve when there is enough awareness about the products and they can easily be located.

How well can we improve trade – local and international, if visual information and awareness of the key products Nigerians produce are not readily available?


What is Jaraja?

• So our e-commerce business aims to enhance and accelerate trade in

goods and services, including soft and hard commodities, produced in

select host countries in Africa, starting with Nigeria. We are focusing

on the non-oil sector including (manufacturing, agriculture, solid

minerals and services)

• We are not going to be directly involved in selling but would rather
