B2B e-commerce and credit for African pharmacies

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a B2B e-commerce and fintech platform that sells wholesale medicine to pharmacies and hospitals across Africa. Our platform replaces open-air markets where pharmacies face higher prices and counterfeit risks. We manage the full supply chain, ensure stock availability, deliver within 24 hours, and provide credit lines to help customers grow.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Lagos, Nigeria and the company is based there.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Lagos is the center of our customers and medicine markets, making it essential to be local. This proximity helps us manage supply chains, understand market challenges, and build trust with pharmacies and hospitals in Africa.
