Buying through online shops in Cameroon has never been the best. Before the emergence of online stores like Jumia, Cameroon's online community experienced slow growth compared to other African countries such as Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana, Egypt, Tanzania, etc.
Possible reasons for this slow digital marketing rate are the high cost of the internet, mediocre internet connectivity, and reluctance to embrace digital shopping in Cameroon.
With many e-commerce online shops coming up, many Cameroonians now turn to local options instead of foreign websites for goods, such as Alibaba, Aliexpress, eBay, and Amazon.
