About CoBuy Naija

CoBuy Naija is a community-driven group buying platform proudly powered by SOGUM INT LTD, a duly registered Nigerian company (CAC RC-1558542).

We exist to help Nigerians save real money by bringing people together to buy everyday goods in bulk at wholesale prices — cutting out middlemen and making essentials more affordable for everyone.

Instead of buying alone at retail prices, we bring people together to buy in bulk — making everyday products more affordable, accessible, and fair.

Our Story

Founded in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, CoBuy Naija was born from a simple observation: when Nigerians buy alone, they pay retail prices. When they buy together, they unlock wholesale savings.

SOGUM INT LTD combines technology and community trust to make bulk buying safe, simple, and accessible — especially in a time when every naira counts.

Led by John Obiebi, an Abuja-based tech enthusiast passionate about affordable living and innovative tech solutions for Nigerians.

What We Do

At CoBuy Naija, we:

  • Create location-based buying pools for food, household items, and more
  • Organize group purchases for essential goods
  • Negotiate directly with trusted suppliers for the best prices
  • Coordinate convenient pickup hubs across Rivers State and beyond
  • Handle secure payments and transparent coordination
  • Ensure transparent pricing and trusted payments

Our mission: Reduce the cost of living, one group purchase at a time.

Why CoBuy Naija Exists

Many Nigerians pay more than they should for basic goods because:

  • They buy individually instead of in bulk
  • Wholesale markets are hard to access
  • Prices fluctuate unfairly

CoBuy Naija solves this by using technology + community to unlock the power of bulk buying.
