Konga champions self-love and smart shopping with ‘Black Valentine’
Konga, Nigeria’s leading composite e-commerce giant, is broadening this year’s Valentine’s season with bold and insightful launch of its Valentine campaign, “Black Valentine: Special Love Series”.
The company says, it is a strategic and empathetic shift designed to redefine how Nigerians celebrate the season of love.
The campaign, which runs from February 1 to 16, 2026, delivers deep discounts of up to 60 per cent and same day delivery across high-demand categories including Home and Kitchen, Computing, Electronics, Beauty and Personal Care, enabling customers to shop affordably for personal upgrades, thoughtful gifts, and everyday essentials.
Traditionally, February’s marketing focus leans heavily on coupledom. However, demographic realities and evolving social trends present a compelling case for a more inclusive approach. Recent analyses and lifestyle surveys indicate that a substantial portion of Nigeria’s young, urban, and economically active population is single.
This group is not defined by a lack, but by independence, self-investment, and discretionary spending power. They are tech-savvy, and increasingly prioritising wellness, personal grooming, and the curation of their living spaces. Konga’s Black Valentine campaign is a direct response to this consumer insight, reframing the season as a period for self-appreciation and and create a more inclusive shopping experience that resonates with both singles and those in relationships.
“The narrative around Valentine’s Day needs expansion,” says Irfan Vayani, Senior Vice President at Konga.
“Love is multifaceted, and the most foundational relationship one can nurture is the one with oneself. ‘Black Valentine’ is our way of honouring every individual’s journey. It’s a campaign built on the principle that whether you’re single, coupled, or simply focused on your own growth, you deserve to celebrate your worth” Vayani said.
