Renowned for the quality of its technical products at unbeatable prices, Decathlon designs and distributes its products through its own brands (Passion brands): Kipsta, Domyos, Kalenji, B'twin ... with the aim of making sport accessible. These passion brands and their products are intently developed by the Decathlon teams and have been rewarded several times for their quality and innovation (Innovation Awards).
The boutique on Jumia is the first of its kind in sub-Saharan Africa for the company. For now, it will propose a first range of products in limited stocks (shoes, bicycles, clothing, fitness equipments, etc.). This test will enable the company to identify needs and expectations of the Ivorian consumers.
This historic and bold collaboration between the two companies brings to the Ivorian market a completely new offer, reinforcing Jumia’s position on the sporting goods segment. For Decathlon, the strategic choice of a dedicated Shop in Shop on Jumia, allows a rapid launch of a single store available throughout Côte d'Ivoire; bypassing most of the logistical and operational constraints that brick and mortar installations implicate.
"Jumia is the launch pad for all major brands such as Decathlon that wish to enter the Ivorian market. Our platform is designed to efficiently meet their marketing, logistics, after-sales, requirements" said Francis Dufay, Managing Director of Jumia Côte d’Ivoire. "For these brands, our efforts aim to create a faster, qualified and inexpensive option. This in turn, allows our customers to have quick access to a wide range of genuine products at competitive prices" he said.
