Nigerian B2B e-commerce and embedded finance startup TradeDepot has announced the acquisition of Green Lion, the biggest and fastest-growing B2B e-commerce platform in Ghana, to accelerate the delivery of its services across the country. 

TradeDepot will take on all existing Green Lion Africa relationships and assets in Ghana. The Green Lion team will also be joining TradeDepot to support the mission to build the future of retail and make food and supplies more accessible and affordable for even the most remote consumers on the continent.  

Green Lion works to revolutionize access to essential goods and services and enables digital commerce for neighborhood retailers in Ghana. Building on this work, TradeDepot will leverage its data, technology, and robust logistics operations to connect more neighborhood retailers in more Ghanaian cities to suppliers and make financing more accessible and affordable.
