Damansah Inc. Empowering African Entrepreneurs

The Problem

For the entirety of their life, African micro and small businesses remain tiny while they make up 90% of the business landscape. Moreover, they usually end up being denied of loans by Financial Institutions because they look risky as they usually do not have financial records to show for the performance of their businesses. African entrepreneurs from the informal sector have difficulties to optimize their business growth.

We built a mobile application named Damansah Smartshop which is a complete package that helps informal entrepreneurs increase their sales, collect and organize their finances.

We believe that empowering small businesses and helping them grow, will promote the growth of our economies and solve some of the societal issues we suffer from. For instance, It will help us in reducing unemployment as more jobs will be created.
