If you’re a vendor or local business in Nigeria and customers are still struggling to find you online, you’re losing ready-to-buy people every day.
This page shows you exactly how to get listed on the Peng Business Directory, what we check before approving a brand, and what the different listing options mean.
Quick summary: You submit your details + proof you’re real. We verify. If approved, you get listed inside the exact category and listing relevant to your brand (this is not a random “business dump”).

How We Verify Vendors
1. If you use Peng Logistics
Verification is easier because deliveries confirm your real location over time (pickup points, order flow, reliability).
2. If you don’t use Peng yet
You’ll still need proof you’re real: customer orders, community proof, consistent delivery history, and clear business identity.
Heads up: If you’re outside our main coverage areas, we may request fresh verification details every 6 months to keep the directory clean and trusted.
What to Send When Applying (Copy + Paste This)
Send this on WhatsApp:
1) Business Name:
2) Category (what you sell):
3) City + State:
4) WhatsApp Number:
5) Instagram and other social media accounts (if any):
6) Your price range (simple range is okay):
7) Proof you’re active (orders/delivery history/screenshots and CAC registration documents):

How to Stand Out (So You Don’t Get Lost in a Crowded List)
- Make your offer obvious: “Ready-to-ship”, “Wholesale”, “Custom”, “Same-day within city”, etc.
- Use clear photos: blurry pictures kill trust fast.
- Have a fast reply habit: many vendors lose sales because they reply late.
- Fix your price confusion: even a range helps buyers decide faster.
- If your category is crowded: consider the Top Pick add-on.
FAQs
Does paying mean I’ll get listed even if I’m not legit?
No. Premium is for speed. Verification still matters.
How long does Standard Spotlight take?
It can take weeks depending on review load and how complete your info is.
Can I request a new category?
Yes. If the category makes sense and there are enough real vendors, we can create it.
Can I be removed later?
Yes, if complaints stack up, delivery/quality becomes unreliable, or the business disappears. Premium listing or not, you will be removed. Customer satisfaction and safety is top priority.
