A major development just hit Nigeria’s e-commerce and logistics space. Retail giant Temu has entered into a delivery partnership with Lagos-based logistics startup Dellyman.
Since its launch in 2020, Dellyman has become one of Nigeria’s go-to platforms for same-day and last-mile delivery. In November 2025, it hit an impressive milestone of 10,000 monthly orders, bringing its total lifetime deliveries to over 300,000. This solid track record makes Dellyman a natural fit for Temu, which is rapidly expanding its logistics network across key African markets.
Through this collaboration, Temu customers in Nigeria will experience faster, more predictable, and more transparent deliveries, a critical factor in sustaining the platform’s customer satisfaction as order volumes continue to rise. Dellyman’s technology-driven approach, spanning rider management, route optimization, and customer visibility, played a central role in Temu’s selection process.
Dare Ojo-Bello, Founder and CEO of Dellyman, described the partnership as both a validation of Dellyman’s operational excellence and a defining moment for Nigeria’s logistics ecosystem.
“Our partnership with Temu is a major endorsement of the vision we set out with, to build Nigeria’s most reliable, scalable, and transparent last-mile delivery infrastructure,” Ojo-Bello said. “Achieving a 95% delivery success rate during the pilot underscores our readiness to support high-volume e-commerce platforms. This collaboration shows that local startups can meet and exceed global standards when given the opportunity.”
He further noted that the partnership represents more than operational growth, as it signals a shift in how global e-commerce brands view Nigerian logistics capabilities. “This is not just about fulfilling orders; it is about reshaping perceptions of what Nigerian delivery companies can achieve. We are committed to building the kind of infrastructure that supports international standards, empowers local businesses, and ultimately strengthens consumer trust in the broader digital economy.”
Ojo-Bello added that Dellyman will continue investing in capacity, fleet expansion, and merchant-facing tools to ensure superior delivery experiences for Temu buyers and other online shoppers nationwide.
The Temu–Dellyman partnership is expected to accelerate the efficiency of e-commerce fulfillment in key urban centers, reduce delivery delays, and strengthen customer trust in cross-border marketplaces.
