goAfrica Holdings Pte. Ltd. today launches goAfrica.io, its online African marketplace.
Multi-faceted, multi-lingual B2B eCommerce and Social Media platforms with leading-edge technology provide powerful online commerce, business intelligence, data analytics, and advertising for those with interests in Africa.
goAfrica's operations support African economies diversifying away from dependency on commodity exports and toward increased local industrialization, food production, services, and job creation - and worldwide companies exporting to or importing from Africa or providing services to it. Their platforms will provide a high quality experience on all mobile devices - smartphones, feature phones, tablets and laptops - even if the user encounters low-bandwidth conditions.
"goAfrica is providing a paradigm shift tool for the understanding of, and the fuller participation in, the rapidly evolving and dynamic world of Africa", said Michael Dobbs-Higginson, Chairman of goAfrica.
goAfrica has an international management team and advisory board with decades of on-the-ground experience in Africa, multiple competencies, and longstanding personal and professional relationships in commerce, finance and politics throughout the continent.
goAfrica's mission is to facilitate and simplify the methods of doing business in Africa. It will donate 10% of pre-tax revenues to development and welfare initiatives throughout Africa.
AllAfrica Global Media, goAfrica's media partner, operates one of the Internet's largest public content sites – allAfrica.com, serving an audience of policymakers, leaders of business and industry, international investors, analysts, diplomats and activists – decision takers and thought leaders in Africa and around the world. With over 10 million monthly page views, more people visit AllAfrica than any other site for African news and information. New content in English and French is added at a rate of 1,000 articles and documents per day to a searchable archive that surpasses four million items. AllAfrica also distributes to 130 African news organizations and via commercial services, which collectively reach tens of millions of viewers worldwide, and disseminates Africa-related video to hundreds of news-producing television affiliates and publications for seamless viewing by end-users on mobile devices, tablets and desktops worldwide.
