A huge shoppers’ surge is currently being recorded on Konga Yakata as shoppers scramble to grab the special 10% discounts offered by Access Bank Plc. and Verve Nigeria to cardholders who make payment for purchases using their debit cards.
Widely regarded as the biggest sale event in the annual shopping calendar in Nigeria, the management of Konga has assured Nigerians that Konga Yakata 2021 would be Black Friday Sales plus.
The Konga Yakata shopping extravaganza runs from November 11 through Dec 12, 2021.
The shopping fiesta, which kicked off on Thursday, is witnessing a massive rush from bargain-hungry shoppers, which feelers from within the company say is unprecedented in the history of Konga Yakata.
The explosion of traffic has been attributed to a mouthwatering offer of an extra 10% discount from leading financial institutions, Access Bank as well as Verve Nigeria to card holders on all purchases made on Konga Yakata.
Shoppers can take advantage of the mouthwatering offer, either by shopping online on www.konga.com or in any Konga retail store nationwide. Interestingly, on this offer, there are no limits for orders placed, although both offers are subject to the availability of the lump sum made available by both Access Bank and Verve to offset the discount.
The development, which has lent an air of first-come, first-served and limited availability to both discount offers, has sparked a huge surge from thousands of shoppers, eager to be among the lucky ones to take advantage of the exciting deal. In addition, feedback shows that several shoppers, who are non-card holders, have equally besieged their banks to apply for Access Bank or Verve cards.
Meanwhile, feelers from within Konga say the scramble for the 10% discounts offered to card-holders by Access Bank and Verve Nigeria has been recorded more heavily in shopping for computing products, with high specification devices by HP and Lenovo leading the line.
There has also been a noticeably heavy spike in orders for food items like rice, oil, tomato paste, flour, noodles as well as Wine & Spirits by cardholders.
