Tembe.com.ng is a platform contributing to this fight by providing local manufacturers an avenue to sell their products, without having to compete for attention with foreign-made goods. The platform was designed exclusively to allow Nigerians buy and sell made-in-Nigeria goods. Categories on the platform range from gadgets, to fashion and art. Vendors register and post products for free, only paying a small percentage after a concluded sale. This percentage also depends on the category, between 3% to 35%. The platform helps with payment processing and delivery logistics. Customers can also rate and review the quality of products they have purchased Tembe’s idea is laudable and is sure to help strengthen the efforts to make Nigerians embrace locally made goods.
