Whether you’re in the UK, USA, Canada, or anywhere else in the world, you may want to shop in Nigeria from abroad for someone—to send gifts, groceries, electronics, or essentials to family, friends, or clients. Fortunately, with the right platforms and partners, you can do this easily, securely, and affordably.

In this article, we explain your options for shopping remotely in Nigeria, the best tools for payment and delivery, and how Wigmore Trading can take care of the entire process on your behalf.


🎯 Why Shop in Nigeria for Someone From Abroad?

  • Avoid international shipping fees and customs delays

  • Get faster delivery through local logistics

  • Pay in your preferred currency (USD, GBP, EUR)

  • Buy items that are locally available and suitable for the Nigerian market

  • Support local retailers and suppliers


🛒 What Can You Shop for in Nigeria Remotely?

  • Furniture and appliances

  • Pharmaceuticals or personal care products

  • Birthday or seasonal gift packages


✅ Ways to Shop in Nigeria from Abroad for Someone

1. Use Nigerian Online Stores That Accept Foreign Cards

Several e-commerce platforms in Nigeria allow you to pay with a foreign-issued Visa or Mastercard:

  • Jumia Nigeria – for general goods, electronics, fashion

  • Konga – appliances, groceries, and gadgets

  • Supermart.ng – Lagos-based grocery delivery

  • Slot.ng – phones and electronics

You can place an order online and provide the recipient’s Nigerian address for delivery.


2. Use Diaspora-Focused Shopping Services

Some UK- and US-based businesses cater to Nigerians abroad by offering:

  • Grocery bundles

  • School supplies

  • Home care packages
    These services are designed for pre-packed items with local delivery options and allow you to pay in GBP, USD, or EUR.


3. Send Money with Purpose and Let Them Shop

Apps like Remitly, Sendwave, and Wise let you send funds directly to your recipient in Nigeria, who can then shop locally.
