The Story of That Naija Market

I moved to the United States in 2007, lived in Cincinnati Ohio for 7 years before relocating to Pennsylvania in 2015. While in Cincinnati, shopping for my favorite African food was no issue as there were various African stores within few miles of where I lived.

Upon my relocating to the North East, easy access to my favorite African groceries and supplies became a constant challenge . There were constant fear of a long drive across states line to New Jersey or NYC when I need to restock. 

In November 2017, after spending almost 3 months without “Garri” in the house, It became glaring that someone has to take up this challenge of ensuring no other home has to stay that long without their favorite food  especially “Garri”.

After doing a consulting work with a private eCommerce company and learning the intricacies of running an eCommerce business, That Naija Market” was created in 2018 .I and my wife  made the decision to launch “ That Naija Market “ with one goal in mind, create that one stop African market for every African family with a vision that ,
