Lifemate Furniture has partnered with Lomo Coffee to introduce a café and restaurant at its Wuse 2 showroom in Abuja, as both companies seek to improve customer experience, promote locally produced coffee and create jobs.
The partnership was unveiled on Saturday at the furniture retailer’s showroom. Speaking at the event, Lifemate Furniture’s Brand Promotion Manager, Raphael Nwankagba, said the collaboration was designed to provide customers with a more convenient shopping experience by offering a place to relax while purchasing furniture.
“We partnered with Lomo Coffee. And, you know, when you shop, shopping doesn’t just have to do with just coming to shop furniture, but you need relaxation, unwinding, and, you know, get yourself relaxed.
“So we noticed that customers need such. So that was why we partnered with Lomo Coffee: to see and give them what they actually want, or what will feel befitting for them. You can see our customers; most of our customers are with their coffee shopping because you know what coffee does to the system.”
Nwankagba described the initiative as the first of its kind for the company and said it could be extended to other Lifemate branches across Nigeria. “So this is the first of its kind. And we started with Abuja, the capital city. And I believe that when time goes on, we probably might even extend to other branches in Nigeria.”
