Providing African Bulk and Wholesale Buyers with Auction Deals
About Us
At Marketplace Africa, we help retailers and manufacturers in the United States sell their overstocked and unsold inventory into African markets at unbelievable prices.
How and why we get our stock?
Retailers and manufacturers often rely on forecasts to manage inventory, but these projections can occasionally be inaccurate. As a result, they are left with surplus inventory that ties up capital and warehouse space. We acquire these excess goods at significantly discounted prices. Due to the nature of these agreements, our partners require that these products be sold outside of the North American region or destroyed. We are anti-destruction of products so we have created this and many other platforms to distribute such goods.
We fulfill the legal requirement of manufacturers and retail stores by selling the inventory globally through various channels, with this particular platform focused on delivering value to the African market.
What items do you sell?
We offer products across nearly every category ranging from fashion and accessories to electronics, alcohol, household detergents, and body care. Because inventory is constantly changing, we never know in advance what manufacturers will send to our warehouse for global distribution.
We work closely with many leading U.S. retailers and a wide range of manufacturers, receiving new inventory shipments Monday through Friday. We recommend visiting the site regularly to discover what items are available for sale or auction, as our product selection updates frequently.
