@Joyce, You've said all this about kalahari.co.ke including offering millions of books, music DVD's etc.... really???? In short you havent answered the question on whether you have the critical mass from Kenya or East Africa for that matter.... Just want clarification. So! Do you actually move these "millions of products a Quarter, let alone a month"?

I used to hypothesis that the reason we don't have a vibrant e-commerce infrastructure in Kenya was the lack of payment solutions and lack of "critical mass" of people online..These two problems have been solved yet we still have nothing on the ground. So my question to y'all experts is what is hindering e-commerce in Kenya?
