Trenddr

Trenddr is a drop-shipping focused, e-commerce marketplace that aims to transform and streamline the drop-shipping business model for traditional wholesale suppliers and retailers in the middle-east. Dropshipping business model has never been streamlined the right way, not only in the middle-east, but worldwide. Stock availability and inventory management has always been a major challenge that lead to increased cancelled orders and impacted online sales and customer experience. Most of e-commerce marketplaces, including major players, spend large amount of money on warehousing, logistics, back-office as workarounds to manage stock and deal with traditional wholesalers & retailers. We at Trenddr, distinguish ourselves by looking at the dropshipping business model from a different perspective. We're creating a solution to what we call; The Dropshipping Chaos.

Wasla Browser

As global habits shift towards digital, many people in emerging markets are left behind due to significantly high internet data costs. To put this into perspective, the average individual in Africa has to work for 29 hours to be able to afford 2GB of mobile internet (compared to 38min in Europe). This is due to rapidly increasing cost of living and limited infrastructure of fixed broadband connections, which leaves the vast majority of the population completely reliant on, unaffordable, mobile internet. To solve this issue, we have built an incentivized mobile web browser that rewards users with free mobile internet and our plan is to give the next 500 million people in emerging markets free internet!
