COVID-19 has been very disruptive in all the spheres of life worldwide. Overnight, it has forced businesses and households to change the way they operate and do shopping. We have seen producers and small businesses denied of a market place to sell their products. From a household perspective, we have witnessed an explosion in search for locally available commodities in the near vicinity due to confinement restrictions. Post-COVID-19 will adversely impact small businesses and individuals, both in the formal and informal sector, as being forecast by several business analysts.
We at AcheterLocal.mu believe that having an online presence and going social is the most effective business resilience solution to survive Post COVID-19 for traditional commerce. This has led to the setup of AcheterLocal.mu listing directory to regroup the local businesses(shops, grocery stores, hardware shops, snacks,vegetable sellers, etc..) and service providers (plumbers, electricians, mechanics, doctors, cleaning & gardening services etc ) under a single online platform.
AcheterLocal.mu is non-profit and has been setup by a group of volunteers to help small businesses and service providers both in the formal and informal sector Post-Covid19. We provide free listings to ANYONE (subject to our policy and terms of conditions) on our online platform to give them an online and social presence. We advertise the listings to the public in general and on social platforms like facebook to ensure that they have a social presence.
We are looking for volunteers to help us in assisting local businesses and service providers in registering themselves on AcheterLocal.mu and marketing the platform in your locality.
