📢Day 15/100: The Rise of Telegram E-Commerce in Ethiopia

Telegram is transforming e-commerce in Ethiopia, but its fragmented nature poses challenges. Vendors operate in silos, and customers struggle to navigate multiple channels.



EthioMart's Vision:



We aim to create a centralized platform aggregating data from Telegram channels, simplifying product discovery for customers and enhancing visibility for vendors.



💡 Question of the day: How can centralized platforms improve Ethiopia’s digital shopping experience?
