Looking good is a big business, and the emerging market is logging record growth in the broad beauty sector. In Nigeria and broad Africa, for most people, after food, beauty comes next as the monthly budget is being developed. And within that framework, there is a huge opportunity to orchestrate a modern supply chain framework to ensure genuine beauty products are available in stores, salons, bars, etc when needed.
Tekedia Capital understands this emerging redesign which is reshaping Africa and we’re excited to report investment in Ginger, an all-in-one marketplace that connects brands and suppliers with global wholesale buyers in high-growth emerging markets. Operating from New York with an office in Lagos (more coming across African capitals), Ginger brings bulk buyers of beauty products and manufacturers, helping with logistics, financing and market development.
Ginger works with global brands like L’Oreal and Ivy Beauty within the B2B ecommerce framework to ensure the right beauty products are available and at the right prices across Africa and beyond. In the age of Instagram and TikTok, looking good is an opportunity. Tekedia Capital welcomes Ginger.
