SlimTrader Revenue and Competitors

SlimTrader has created the first platform in Africa that allows consumers to purchase goods and services with their mobile devices. This is especially valuable given the slow and erratic internet access on the continent, which leaves residents with the sole option of traveling and waiting in line to conduct potentially simple transactions.\r\n\r\nSlimTrader, an e-commerce firm, seeks to relieve the burdens associated with everyday transactions in developing countries by providing the missing link to completing these important activities: easy and affordable access.\r\n\r\nThrough a proprietary mobile-phone technology, SlimTrader helps to widen markets, reduce transaction costs, and facilitate the exchange of goods and services. It’s about getting people what they need, regardless of where they are. Now.\r\n\r\nPhysical travel, postal service, long waits, and other hardships associated with completing life’s necessary tasks, from filling prescription to buying bus tickets, are all eliminated. All users need is a mobile phone—and a purpose.\r\n\r\nSilmTrader…applying mobile technology for social impact.
