Palli lets manufacturers run promotions directly with last-mile retailers, and pay only when product moves.
Talk to usManufacturers across Africa reach customers through the informal supply chain. Millions of independent shops, supplied by distributors, wholesalers, and agents who know the roads, the relationships, and who pays on time. It works. Goods keep moving through infrastructure no single company could build or manage alone.
That same chain sits between manufacturers and their customers. Prices, promotions, and shelf decisions are made by the people in between. The manufacturer sees what left the factory and what came back as cash.
Palli gets your offer across your market, turns shop orders into verified records, pays rebates straight to the buyer, and reports what your spend returned.
Pushed to the markets and segments you choose, then browsable in Palli and on WhatsApp for as long as the campaign runs.
Palli talks with every customer. Voice, photos, local language, matched to your campaign and catalogue, confirmed as complete orders.
Purchases can also be verified after delivery from proof of purchase.
Reimbursement goes direct to customers, only after delivery is confirmed. Promotions can be expanded to include agents and depots.
No app required. Wallet available with WhatsApp.
Budget, orders, and uptake, live while the campaign runs.
As discounts and promotions move through Palli, a record forms that this market has never had. What was offered, where it landed, and who took it up, confirmed at the point of delivery.
Every redemption adds a shop to the network. Each one is a retailer a manufacturer can reach directly the next time demand needs to move.
That record changes what each participant can do. Manufacturers direct pricing to the shops and products that need it. Retailers secure the supply and the terms to meet consumer demand. Agents carry an offer worth more than the one they had before.
Francis grew up in Ugandan communities and understands local commerce from the inside. Jon spent years mentoring small businesses across Africa. Together they built Palli from observation, not assumption.
This goes beyond two founders. The whole team has committed to the same work: riding alongside delivery agents, sitting with suppliers, listening to retailers. Serving, listening, and learning. Every product decision comes from time spent with the people who use it.
