Jovago, which has over 200,000 hotel listings across the world, started off in Nigeria and Kenya and has expanded into 10 African countries including Senegal, Tanzania, Uganda and Ghana.
The company has grown its East African staff ten folds since it started operations in the region, from just seven employees in 2013 to over 75 currently. It has over 400 staff across Africa.
Africa’s hotel industry is waking up to online bookings as more and more people connect to the internet using their smartphones. This has seen several internet based booking companies, such as Hotels.ng in West Africa and SleepOut, spring up to capture this opportunity.
