WaraCake is a Nigeria based startup that offers an online marketplace for personal bakers and cake makers helping customers to make purchases and have them delivered to any locations in Lagos, Nigeria. The startup was launched in 2015. The company managed to raise an unspecified amount of money from Jumia and Konga executive Onyenka Akumah immediately after it’s launched. The startup was thereafter allowed joining the Tony Elumelu Entrepreneurship Program in 2016.
This being the festive season and given the fact that most African Christians value the season and every company within the continent is working to rip maximum profit due to the high rate of buying from the people. This is the period when the majority of Christians spend most of the time with their families and those in the urban areas visit the countryside to spend time with their loved ones. People tend to make their stay together a memorable one by giving of gifts or offering the best that has not been used throughout the year.
WaraCake is not left behind in the fight in improving its services in during this festive season. The startup has developed and launched a new online platform known as WaraGifts which will be intended to award its customers during this period. The platform mainly focuses on a keen selection of dealers who retail unique products only. The platform will be launched in Nigeria capital with 150 gift categories already found on it. However, there are plans to add more to serve customers with an outstanding festive shopping taste.
The platform is targeting to reach many people before the elapse of the Christmas season and grow further afterward. It is not only about making more profit during the season but to also add to itself a good number of customers.
