It aims to address these challenges by providing a digital marketplace that streamlines the process of finding buyers and selling MadeInAfrica products.\n**🚀 How It Works**:\nÚbì's platform connects suppliers/farmers directly to distributors, eliminating intermediaries, improving food traceability, ensuring fair trade, and reducing transaction costs. Farmers can register produce, set prices, and distributors can browse listings, place orders, and track deliveries. The platform also provides access to market information and pricing data.\n**🌱 Social Impact**:\n* Reduced post-harvest losses: By connecting farmers to bulk buyers, Úbì reduces lost produce due to poor market access and inefficient delivery.\n* Increased market access: Provides farmers access to wider markets, potentially leading to higher prices.\n* Improved food security: Enhances food distribution efficiency, ensuring more food reaches consumers, contributing to food security.\n**🤝 Project Links**:\n* Our pilot platform: www.ubiafrica.com/alpha\n* Sign up to be our distributor: https://www.ubiafrica.com/distributor \n**❤️ Support Úbì**:\n* Help onboard more farmers and local brands by donating to our wallet address: 0xe922e51116c3a686D9B866C6A405EA196A257545.\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "UbiAfricaHQ"}
