Established in 2008, Wakanow (our parent company) was
founded as Nigeria’s first OTA (Online Travel Agent) to bridge the gap and
eliminate the barriers and inefficiencies facing the travel industry. Two years
after its launch, the site fully took off around the period of the 2010 World
Cup in South Africa, affording it the much needed early kick-off momentum.
In its eight years of its existence, Wakanow has grown to
become one of Africa’s leading travel booking portals, with physical presence
in Nigeria, UAE, Ghana, UK, US and aggressive plans to open new offices across
Africa. With convenient payment system, excellent customer service and
technology anchored at the center of its processes, Wakanow has expanded the
frontiers of travel to become a force to be reckoned with in the African travel
landscape. In 2013, Wakanow was recognized as one of the fastest growing online
companies in Nigeria by the Tony Elumelu Foundation in alliance with the All-world
Networks based in the UK.
