AfCFTA Number
The "AfCFTA Number" Portal is proposed as a “public digital good” to ensure that the “net of AfCFTA benefits” does not miss any African enterprise or organisation, however small, weak or remote. Through the concept of a unique, continentally recognized, entity identifier, SMEs, sole proprietors, traders, and community-based organisations shall be able to register and obtain a “portable digital identity” as the basis of a pan-African business profile and trust-accreting mechanism. The AfCFTA number shall be the fulcrum around which AfCFTA Link’s interoperable engine shall run to ensure seamless flow of process data across multiple elements of an emerging, unified, trade infrastructure astride the African continent.
AfCFTA Hub
With the AfCFTA Hub App, most organizations, whether in the public, private or NGO sector, can take advantage of AfCFTA to grow their business, extend their activities across Africa, or reinvent their business model. For organizations with more complex needs, the AfCFTA Hub App can help simplify how they organise their supplier networks or how they organise their customer channels.
Designed to also streamline how governments interact with businesses and other entities on the African continent in the wake of AfCFTA, AfCFTA Hub should enable easy outreach to the 1.2 billion individual African citizens and consumers, who are AfCFTA's biggest beneficiaries.
Because every entity, individual or actor in the AfCFTA ecosystem gets a free AfCFTA number in what should become the world's largest trade registry, plus a suite of tools to trade, partner and co-create, everyone is not only a click away in Africa, they are also just one "hello" away from a breakthrough.
Social Credit for African Business
Medium-sized African enterprises are keen on export opportunities across the continent but they often lack the trust and goodwill to build effective partnerships in new markets.
The AfCFTA Hub app is designed to help such enterprises accumulate the "social credit" needed for building such trust and goodwill through deft technology and social engineering.
