About Oja Fresh

A market run, done for you.

Oja means market. We started Oja Fresh to give busy Lagos households market prices and market freshness without the 5am trip.

Our story

Started with one question: why is fresh food so hard to get?

Most of Lagos buys its produce at a handful of big markets before sunrise. Our founder did that run for hotel kitchens for years and saw how much better, and cheaper, the food was than on a supermarket shelf.

Oja Fresh makes that run for you. We buy in the morning, pack by hand in Surulere and deliver the same day, so what reaches your kitchen was at the market a few hours earlier.

What we stand for

Three promises to every customer.

Fresh first

We would rather sell out than send you something past its best.

Fair, clear prices

Close to market prices, with the size or weight on everything we sell.

Put right, quickly

If something is wrong, we refund or replace it without an argument.

The team

The people who shop for you.

A small team that buys, packs and checks every order.
