Our take
Much of global B2B trade is still carried out using outdated processes, with excessive red tape and harsh payment terms. Qogita aims to revolutionise the industry by smoothing the transition from physical to e-commerce and improving the market dynamics which work against most merchants.
Qogita has the goal of becoming the world's best B2B platform for connecting buyers and sellers. Its customers range from small retailers and large brands, drugstores and pharmacies, to distributors and wholesalers.
It helps clients to generate better profit margins and turnover, while simultaneously reducing labour costs through its technology infrastructure. The platform allows users to integrate their systems in minutes, with built-in supplier optimisation and a large catalogue offering thousands of categories and brands.
This allows both buyers and sellers to find each other more easily and quickly. In the future, Qogita aims to continue to grow through its mission of bundling purchasing power with improved technology to improve customers' profitability, while also optimising their payment terms, access to financing, and connectivity.
