Trade by Barter Platforms In Nigeria

Good day everyone, please are there reliable and convenient trade by barter platforms in Nigeria that can be recommended?

Trade by barter - trading in which goods or services are exchanged without the use of money.

Thank you.

The existence of such platform is doubtful

Came across TradeByBarterNg recently: https://www.tradebybarter.com.ng/

Do we still have such in Nigeria?  But, it will really be nice if we can have multiple ones,  due to the rate at which things are expensive.  Instead of scrambling to get funds to purchase an item, one could easily exchange with an unused item in one's custody.

 

Good day

Good day Eunice, you are absolutely right: easy exchange, reduction in scramble for funds, recognition and exchange of value within one's self/environment, and importantly, reliable multiple platforms for such. There is a lot of benefit to this including increase in social cohesion and self-worth.

On PositiveNaija, we are also trying to build such a barter platform (https://www.positivenaija.com/forum/forum/trade-by-barter/).

Thank you Eunice for your comment.
