BERLIN, 24th April, 2014: The online property listings giant Lamudi (www.lamudi.com) turns six months old this month and has marked the occasion by releasing an infographic showing the exceptional pace of growth of the company. Launched in October 2013, Lamudi is now operating across 25 countries in Africa, Asia and South America with further expansion planned in the future. Over 250,000 properties are now listed worldwide on the platform – a 100% increase on the 100,000 properties that were listed on Lamudi in February of this year. Aneesa Arshad, CEO of Lamudi East & Southern Africa (www.lamudi.co.ke) commented: “In six months we have grown to a strong global network with over 300 employees across 25 countries worldwide. In Kenya, we started with a small core team and have become the number one platform for real estate in the country. We will continue this growth story and develop even faster in the next six months. » Aneesa Arshad outlined her ambition for Lamudi in the future: “We want to show everyone how easy it is to find properties online and shape the classifieds market in Africa by offering a superior product. The interest and excitement surrounding our product is great to see and we will continue to build up our services. We want everyone who looks for a new home – whether its individuals, landlords or businesses – to be able to say ‘we found it on Lamudi’.”
