Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu says the future of commerce is digital while commending Jumia on the launch of an integrated warehouse in the state by the e-commerce company.

Meanwhile, Governor Sanwo-Olu represented by Mrs. Folashade Ambrose-Medebem, Lagos State Commissioner for Commerce, Cooperatives, Trade & Investment, described the cutting-edge facility, which is a consolidation of all Jumia warehouses into a singular depot in Lagos, as a highlight of the crucial role the State plays in the economic landscape of Nigeria and Africa at large.

The future of commerce is digital, Sanwo-Olu said, and Lagos is ready to support those who are willing to embrace this change while his administration remains dedicated to creating a conducive environment for businesses to flourish, with robust infrastructure, favourable policies, and unwavering support.
