Hello everyone,

Shopping online can be far more convenient and offer greater choice than going into shops, be it grocery shopping or retail.

Are there options for online shopping in Ghana? Which sites or apps do you use most frequently and are these local or international?

Are there particular products that are cheaper to buy online or that are perhaps not available in Ghana?

What is the delivery process like is it easy to receive deliveries and what are the costs of shipping? Are there any taxes to pay upon receipt?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Priscilla

Hello everyone,

that would really interest me - I live in Cape Coast and my heart sinks every time I have to go to Accra

One problem I can see is the lack of postal (physical) addresses in most places, but maybe "the obruni who lives in Woraba" might find me

However most of the online services only deliver in Accra and not country wide
