Due to COVID-19 (CoronaVirus), we're experiencing cargo airline shipping delays from US to Europe. Although cargo airlines are not affected by the travel ban, some cargo airports are shutdown due to COVID-19 (CoronaVirus). We're rerouting our cargo through other airlines that fly direct to Nigeria or through other countries. Please expect at least 2weeks shipping and delivery delays. Our US warehouse is safe and still open Monday to Friday to receive and process packages. We'll be shipping all items at $5 per pound including phones, laptops, and perfumes to provide some relief to customers. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all our customers during these challenging times. Stay safe! Stay positive! Keep praying! We'll overcome!
In 2005, Heroshe Co-founder Chichi Ukomadu moved to America to pursue her version of the American dream. Before she left Nigeria she was overjoyed at the prospect of all that was ahead of her. She wasn’t prepared for the hardships she would face before she founded Heroshe.
She ventured into the American job market. She was confident that her Computer Science degree combined with her prior experiences at Shell and KPMG Nigeria would allow her have her choice of jobs. She searched for months, growing more and more discouraged with each day that passed without a job. Months turned into years without a job offer.
Then, her husband asked her a simple question: “What are you passionate about?” The answer came easily: shopping and helping people. “Can you turn either of these passions into a business?” he asked. Then she realized she had already been doing a combination of both passions for years.
Heroshe was founded with a desire to serve people. Since opening our doors in 2012, Heroshe has been connecting Nigerians with quality US products they deserve at shipping prices they can afford.
