Micro Station Opens Ibadan Outlet
Micro Station Limited, a telecoms and mobile devices retailing firm in the country, has opened its Ibadan, Oyo State retail outlet, which is in line with its commitment to deepen access to affordable and cutting-edge mobile devices.
The new retail outlet offers a one-stop shop where Nigerians can meet all their telecommunications and computing needs.
Before now, existing Micro Station outlets in Victoria Island, Otigba Street in Computer Village, Awolowo Way in Ikeja, Oshogbo; Ikorodu, Mushin and Sango-Otta, as well as at the Kodesho Road, Ikeja have continued to serve the company’s growing customers in the area of access to affordable, stylish and demand-meeting devices.
Speaking on the development in Lagos, the Managing Director of the company, Mrs. Tinuola Coutroupis, said this was in line with the company’s vision to constantly deliver affordable mobile devices to Nigerians.
“This latest branch was open for business early in May, on Iwo Road, Ibadan. We deemed it necessary to site this branch in Ibadan to be able to service our numerous customers from that part of the country,” she explained.
She also said that the target audience for the new outlet cuts across mobile device users of all levels, considering the economic and socio-cultural nature of the people of Ibadan and its environs in the South western Nigeria.
Micro Station said it is commencing a customer loyalty programme by the beginning of the third quarter to reward its customers with rebates, freebies and other mind-blowing gifts.
Head, Retail Businesses and Services, Mr. Emmanuel Ekuma, said the loyalty scheme, powered by Interswitch Nigeria, is first of its kind in the industry.
According to him, the reward scheme, which seeks to continually appreciate the company’s numerous customers for their loyalty and patronage over the years, requires a simple process for customers to key into and avail themselves of the benefits in the loyalty scheme.
Explaining how it works, Ekuma said: “Our customers, who visit any of our outlets across the country, spend as little as N4, 000 and earn a hundred points by so doing. They stand to win fantastic gifts from 300 points and beyond. Upon attaining 1,500 points, they stand to enjoy a discount of 2.5 per cent for life.”
“In addition, our customers can enjoy one per cent discount on every purchase valued at N25, 000 and above. This is part of the measure we are taking towards ensuring our corporate social responsibility by rewarding our customers whilst making them have pleasurable shopping experiences,” he added.
