November's Juma, significantly outperformed our previous event, held only four months earlier. Items purchased increased by nearly 130% and GMV increased by almost 50% compared to Juma in July, which at the time was dramatically bigger than anything we had ever held before. Mikheil Lomtadze, Kaspi.kz CEO and co-founder, commented; "At Kaspi.kz we never stop trying to make everyday life better for our consumers and merchants. In July we brought Juma back for the first time since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic and it surpassed all our expectations. With November's event, we've raised the bar again. Compared to Juma in July, participating consumers increased by over 50%, items purchased increased by nearly 130% and GMV increased by almost 50%. This increase in scale in just four months, proves to us that our constant efforts to make Kaspi Marketplace better continue to pay off. We're not finished yet though and still have lots of ideas for high quality, highly relevant digital services that will make a difference. I'd like to thank everyone at Kaspi.kz that worked so hard to make this event possible, and of course our merchants and consumers for making Kaspi Juma more special than ever before."
