Atsoko.com an online Stockholm that manages the website, logistics and sourcing is already on market to develop an online shopping website and service in Rwanda.
Atsoko is a website that offers people living in Rwanda an online personal shopping service, making it possible for them to buy things from web stores in Europe, without a credit card.
Atsoko CEO, Marie Englesson told igihe.com that, “In October we launched our Atsoko web shop, with our own catalogue of items. Here we post products that our clients have bought through our personal shopping service, or items that we recommend. This helps our clients to get an idea of what you can buy online.”
Englesson further revealed that they have just reached an agreement with a local supermarket that will take care of payments and deliveries for Atsoko’s clients, starting January 2012.
“We have realized that our clients want a physical shop where they can make payments and pick up their deliveries for things they order online,” she pointed out. The company she said is seeing several synergies with partnering with a local supermarket.
According to her, shopping online is addictive most of the time. “People are hesitant, but we now have a steady group of returning clients. Shopping online may seem complicated the first time, but once you understand how it works, it is addictive.”
Atsoko is a group of companies with Atsoko International AB as the mother company.
Atsoko International AB is founded and based in Sweden, and it is in Stockholm we manage the website, logistics and sourcing.
Our sales offices Atsoko Tanzania Ltd and Atsoko Rwanda Ltd are registered in Dar es Salaam and in Kigali respectively.
