A home that provides a seamless and direct link between suppliers, traditional retailers as well as farmers and local eateries. We empower shops and eateries by ensuring that they can conveniently order from the comfort of their phones through the Kyosk app and enjoy the delivery of affordable products within 24 hours. We also help manufacturers and farmers expand their network and product range by providing last mile deliveries to hard-to reach communities as well as data for better demand and business planning.
The platform does not only support product distribution but also helps service providers such as financial institutions to reach and provide their services (e.g. credit, insurance etc.) to the traditional shops, farmers and eateries.
