The Problems to Solve
Todayโs ecommerce landscape faces several common pain points that affect both buyers and sellers: Disjointed vendor systems: Many marketplaces donโt offer unified management tools, making it difficult for multiple sellers to operate efficiently under one platform. Complex checkout processes: Customers often abandon carts due to confusing or lengthy purchase flows, especially when switching between vendors or payment methods. Limited local payment options: In regions like East Africa, global platforms rarely support mobile money systems like M-Pesa, leaving out a large segment of the market. Vendor visibility challenges: Small and mid-sized sellers struggle to gain traction in saturated markets without access to a shared, discoverable online platform. Inventory and order management gaps: Vendors need simplified tools to track stock, process orders, and communicate with customers โ without needing advanced technical skills. These challenges lead to lost sales, frustrated customers, and limited growth for small businesses trying to move online.
