Temu, the fast-growing global e-commerce powerhouse, has sealed a strategic delivery partnership with Lagos-based logistics startup Dellyman, reports ITREALMS.
This collaboration marks a significant, technology-driven step in Temu’s aggressive expansion into the Nigerian market, Africa's largest digital economy.
The partnership follows a rigorous pilot phase where Dellyman successfully completed over $1,300 deliveries with an exceptional $95% success rate, a performance metric that convinced Temu of the startup's capacity to handle large-scale e-commerce operations nationwide.
Founded in 2020, Dellyman has rapidly become a leader in same-day and last-mile delivery. The company, which operates an "Uber for logistics" aggregation model, recently achieved a $10,000-order monthly delivery milestone in November 2025, contributing to a cumulative total of more than $300,000 lifetime deliveries. This proven track record made Dellyman a strong strategic fit for Temu, which aims to improve delivery speed and reliability to compete fiercely against established players like Jumia.
Through this collaboration, Temu customers in Nigeria are guaranteed faster, more predictable, and more transparent deliveries; a crucial factor in sustaining the platform’s customer satisfaction amidst rising order volumes.

Dellyman’s selection, ITREALMS gathered, was largely driven by its technology-first approach, which encompasses advanced rider management, route optimisation, and real-time customer visibility.
Dare Ojo-Bello, Founder and CEO of Dellyman, hailed the partnership as a major validation of the company's operational blueprint and a defining moment for Nigeria’s entire logistics ecosystem.
“Our partnership with Temu is a major endorsement of the vision we set out with: to build Nigeria’s most reliable, scalable, and transparent last-mile delivery infrastructure,” Ojo-Bello said.

“This is not just about fulfilling orders; it is about reshaping perceptions of what Nigerian delivery companies can achieve. We are committed to building the infrastructure that ultimately strengthens consumer trust in the broader digital economy,” he added.
The Temu–Dellyman alliance is set to accelerate the efficiency of e-commerce fulfilment in key urban centres, reduce delivery delays from the typically long cross-border shipping cycles, and solidify customer confidence in online marketplaces.
