'Africa' doesn't exist The continent's 1.5B+ consumers and $3T in GDP are deeply fragmented into mini-markets That creates: • Duplicated costs • Regulatory complexity • Barriers to scale The most revolutionary act in African business isn't disruption — it's integration 💡

We didn't start @DawaMkononi with millions of dollars, we started with a deep belief that medicine access should not depend on where your facility is, or how far you are from a city. Today we are very excited and proud to announce our selection as one of 7 growth-stage startups
