(Business in Cameroon) - The Cameroonian classified ads website kerawa.com announces that it has signed a merger agreement with Afrimalin. The website that bought Leportail.ci earlier in 2017 communicated this news in a statement published on February 12, 2018.  

The statement reveals that the new entity formed by Leportail.ci, Kerawa.com and Afrimalin.com will become the leader of classified ads in Francophone Africa.

“For us, it seemed natural to merge to progress quickly. We have decided to merge with kerawa.com and leportail.ci which are leaders in Cameroon and Côte d’Ivoire respectively. With this, we can exceed the million visitors monthly and increase the countries we cover from 8 to 10”, explains Thibault Launay, co-founder of Afrimalin.

So, thanks to this merger, Afrimalin is now present in 10 countries, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Mali, Guinea, DR Congo, Senegal, Congo Brazzaville and Gabon.
