Operational Impact
The solution delivered by FATbit Technologies transformed the liquor distribution market in Africa from offline to online, creating an equal opportunity environment for sellers of all sizes. The system's basket price comparison functionality delivered price transparency to the end-user and set a playing field for fair trading practices. The integration of the Point of Sales (POS) system with the platform improved the operational efficiency of the sellers and accelerated the rate of solution adoption. The integration of Africa's leading loyalty program platform incentivized end-users with loyalty points for each purchase, spiking up positive purchase behavior and the number of new users committed to the system.
