Copia Kenya, a leading e-commerce platform, has announced a significant organizational restructuring in response to ongoing financial difficulties. This decision follows a crucial meeting held on May 15, 2024. The company has issued a one-month notice to employees whose positions may become redundant, as it explores all possible avenues to sustain its operations

Copia Kenya is facing continued financial challenges that threaten the sustainability of its business. Despite efforts to address these issues, the company must now consider extensive restructuring to remain viable. The restructuring may involve significant layoffs or potentially shutting down the company altogether. Employees in certain positions have been given a one-month notice of potential redundancy.

Copia Kenya is actively seeking alternative revenue sources to mitigate its financial problems. The company remains committed to finding solutions that can save the business from collapse.

In April 2023, Copia exited the Ugandan market, raising concerns about its business model. In July 2023, Copia laid off a quarter of its workforce, signaling deeper financial troubles.

Copia Kenya is at a critical juncture where it must implement far-reaching organizational changes to navigate its financial challenges. The company is committed to exploring all possible solutions to sustain its operations and protect as many jobs as possible. However, the potential for significant layoffs or a complete shutdown looms, necessitating immediate and decisive action.

Message to Employees:

“We understand the gravity of this situation and the impact it has on our employees and their families. We are committed to transparent communication and will keep everyone informed as we navigate these challenging times. Our priority is to find a viable path forward for Copia Kenya and its dedicated team.”
