Yummy Meals at your Fingertips
Over a hundred restaurants are available on Jumia Food. You can order food from any of the restaurants or even multiple restaurants.
All restaurants offer payment on delivery, so you can pay only when the food is delivered. However, for now all the restaurants are located in Lagos, Abuja, Ibadan, and Port Harcourt.
Delivery time for the food ranges from 20 minutes to 60 minutes depending on the restaurant. You can find the average food delivery time for each restaurant at the Jumia Food website.
It is always a good idea to order your food well ahead of time to account for the delivery time. For example, if you are ordering lunch from the office make your order at least one hour before lunch time.
