Kivo
Giving a permanent digital address to mobile street vendors across West Africa.

The real-world problem
Across African streets and markets (such as in Lomé), mobile vendors move daily. Regular customers struggle to find them again, and exchanging private WhatsApp numbers is awkward and unsustainable. The result: vendors lose repeat customers every time they move.
The Kivo solution
“The QR stays put. You move.” — A durable digital address connecting vendors and buyers seamlessly:
- A single immutable QR code, printable on badges, carts, or baskets
- Publish today’s selling zone in just two taps from a smartphone
- A clean public vendor page with clear neighborhood markers
- Instant buyer follows without exchanging private personal phone numbers
- Subscribers receive alerts when the vendor arrives in their area
- Tailored to local realities: phone-based sign-in (+228 Togo) & lightweight PWA
