Background

Business In is a platform that provides support to entrepreneurs and individuals in the French-speaking community of Africa for their business or travel needs in Dubai and other locations. Our services include dropshipping, logistics, and tourism. We noticed that many entrepreneurs in Africa face challenges when it comes to importing goods from overseas due to high shipping costs and long delivery times. Additionally, many people lack knowledge about the local culture and customs when traveling to Dubai for business or leisure.

Problem

The main problem we identified was the lack of affordable and reliable logistics services for entrepreneurs in Africa who want to import goods from overseas. This resulted in higher costs and longer delivery times, making it difficult for them to compete with other businesses. Another issue was the lack of knowledge about local customs and culture when traveling to Dubai, which could lead to misunderstandings and missed opportunities.

Solution

To address these problems, we developed a comprehensive logistics service that offers affordable rates and faster delivery times compared to traditional shipping methods. We also provide cultural training programs for those traveling to Dubai, including language lessons, etiquette tips, and information on local customs. Our team worked closely with local partners in Dubai to ensure that our clients have access to the best resources available.
