Leading ICT company, MTN Nigeria has set a new benchmark in the retail sector with the unveiling of sub-Saharan Africa’s first fully digitised retail store in Ikoyi, Lagos. This milestone underscores MTN’s commitment to enhancing customer service experience.

Leveraging modern technology, the new store features a seamless and intuitive shopping environment where customers can easily locate products, discover new offerings, resolve their queries by interacting with the digital tools available, and receive support from friendly staff.

The modern design and layout of the store creates a welcoming space for customers to explore and engage with MTN’s innovative offerings.
