We distribute fast moving consumer goods as well as social products. We are a profit-for-purpose company based in Cape Town. The company help informal grocery stores in townships and rural areas to improve their management. We provide them with point of sales devices that enable them to order their stock at the best bulk prices directly from their shop, and we deliver their orders to their doorstep within a few hours. Our devices also take care of their stock management and are equipped with barcode scanners and receipt printers. We provide them with training, access to new products and services and a loyalty program for their customers. The company develops their sales and market shares in townships and rural areas by offering in-store merchandising services to ensure that their products are directly available to their customers. The company has the ability to influence orders and build on-shelf visibility. Our online services ensure that orders can be received 24/7, facilitate cashless payments and collect market data. As we empower South African Black owned grocery stores, we can help South African brands and manufacturers to optimize their BBEEE scorecards.
