Equally important, the flash sales are expected to be a daily feature of the eighth anniversary celebrations effective today, Monday June 29 until the end of the promotion on Tuesday, July 2, 2020 – a development that has heralded intense excitement among eager shoppers, many of whom have awaited the commencement of the flash sales with keen anticipation.

Meanwhile, the daily flash sales are expected to provide lucky customers an opportunity to claim a number of exciting products at highly discounted prices.

A number of amazing products have been lined up for the flash sales which will run daily across multiple product categories including mobile phones, computing and devices, electronics, FMCG products, kitchen appliances, fashion and much more.

The palpable excitement among bargain-hungry shoppers for the flash sales stems from the fact that it is a unique opportunity to enjoy unmatched discounts or giveaway prices on the items or products up for sale.

“The products can drop at any time once the flash sales start. So, my advice: if you are not yet doing so, you have to ensure you are following Konga on their various social media platforms in order to keep abreast of developments.

‘‘Having shopped on Konga for so many years, I have participated in numerous flash sales so I have a fair bit of experience,’’ he concluded.

QNET, a global lifestyle and wellness-focused direct-selling company, in collaboration with its Nigerian partner Transblue Limited, hosted the Amezcua Product Workshop at the Radisson Hotel, Ikeja GRA, on Friday.

L-R: Bernhard Gaksch, QNET’s Category Manager and Global Trainer, Mr. Akeem Ajisafe, Managing Director, Transblue Nigeria Ltd, Biram Fall, Regional General Manager of QNET for Sub-Saharan Africa and Prof.Abiodun Adebayo, Vice-Chancellor Covenant University at the Amezcua Product Workshop at the Radisson Hotel, Ikeja GRA, on Friday.

Biram Fall, Regional General Manager of QNET for Sub-Saharan Africa, who delivered an insightful speech highlighting the company’s commitment to enhancing lives through innovative products.

In his address, Fall emphasized QNET’s dedication to ethical and legal standards, noting that the company has been operating in Nigeria for the past two years through various channels across over 25 countries.

He highlighted QNET’s unique business model, which combines direct selling with an e-commerce platform, enabling the company to serve a diverse customer base and provide entrepreneurial opportunities for financial independence.

“The global direct-selling industry is highly competitive, valued at approximately $167.7 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $204.9 billion by 2032,” Fall stated.

“These significant figures act as a catalyst for growth in Nigeria’s direct-selling market, which is expected to expand considerably, thereby supporting the country’s economic development.”

Fall also shared that several of QNET’s products, including EDG3, Prospark toothpaste, and Physioradiance face serum, have been certified by NAFDAC in Nigeria.

He reflected on last year’s product workshop in Lagos, which featured experts like Dr. Shafi Shaik and Professor Abiodun Adebayo, and set the stage for a successful product expo.

The workshop focused on the Amezcua line, including the Amezcua Chi-Pendant 4 and the Bio-Disc 3, designed to harmonize and energize the body.

Fall also discussed the Amezcua E-Guard X, which offers protection from electronic radiation.

Before concluding, Fall announced QNET’s second Product Expo in Lagos, scheduled to start on November 16th, 2024, at the Anchor Events Place in Ikeja.

The expo will showcase QNET’s lifestyle and wellness products and provide insights into the company’s business model and commitment to quality.

“We are dedicated to being a leading global lifestyle and wellness-focused direct-selling organization and look forward to welcoming our media partners to the event,” Fall concluded.

Mr. Akeem Ajisafe, Managing Director of Transblue Nigeria Ltd, also spoke at the event, emphasizing the importance of the partnership in connecting Nigerians to QNET’s global network and empowering the youth.

He highlighted QNET’s “Say No” campaign launched in November 2023 to raise awareness about the dangers of fraudulent job offers used by scammers to lure victims into human trafficking in Nigeria, Senegal, and Burkina Faso.

This ongoing campaign underscores the urgent need to protect youth from falling prey to unscrupulous individuals and organizations.

Ajisafe noted that QNET has collaborated with government agencies like the Nigerian State Consumer Protection Agency on Consumer Rights Day to eradicate harmful market practices and champion fairness and accountability.

He also mentioned QNET’s participation in the Training Program for Nigerian Youth, a partnership with the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment, aimed at equipping young individuals with essential skills and knowledge to safely navigate the job market.

Ajisafe highlighted QNET’s impressive efforts to implement youth empowerment initiatives in Nigeria, including the Signature of Financial Literacy Program, which has equipped over 1,350 youths with employability and entrepreneurial skills to achieve financial independence.

These initiatives reflect QNET’s commitment to debunking misconceptions about the company in Nigeria, promoting transparency, and fostering innovation among youths through education and training.

Bernhard Gaksch, QNET’s Category Manager and Global Trainer, highlighted the importance of wellness solutions in today’s tech-driven world.

“Every electronic device, from smartphones to smart TVs, emits electromagnetic fields, which research suggests may contribute to issues like headaches, fatigue, and other serious health problems,” he explained.

QNET’s response includes products inspired by nature and backed by advanced science. Among them is the Bio-Disc 3, which restores water’s natural molecular structure, improving hydration, detoxification, and immune function.

“The best water comes from a stream, but as it travels, it loses energy. The Bio-Disc revitalizes this energy,” Gaksch stated, adding that its benefits extend to plants, pets, and food.

Complementing the Bio-Light 3, which uses sequenced light technology to accelerate healing, targeting chronic inflammation, muscle pain, and migraines. Gaksch noted its effectiveness in promoting faster recovery and nerve repair.

To combat harmful EMFs, QNET introduced the Chi-Pendant 4 and Amezcua eGuard X, which protect against 5G radiation and other electronic emissions.

The Chi-Pendant preserves the body’s natural biofield, shielding users from stress and fatigue, while the eGuard X transforms harmful EMFs into beneficial frequencies, creating a safer environment. “It’s like protecting yourself from tobacco, but for the wireless age,” Gaksch remarked.
