Dedicated to local people, all these platforms were available in both English and French languages. Many of them have now also been translated in local languages including Amharic, Somali, Hausa, Yoruba, Kinyarwanda, Swahili, Malagasy and soon Wolof, Zulu, Sotho and Swazi so that the users can easily access to them. Africar Group teams are very attached to the conveniency of its websites for the local populations and are currently pursuing the translation of the car classifieds platforms.


“Translating our different platforms means a lot for us as we focus on local people. We want them to easily access to our car classifieds websites so that they can benefit from this free service. In that sense, we think that it is key to adapt our platforms locally and that it makes sense for our users. We now reach 400 millions of potential users and we are the only one among our competitors to make such an effort and to offer them this service.” says Axel Peyriere, co-founder and CEO of Africar Group.
