Origin Network Details
Origin is a social enterprise that empowers small local retailers to play a greater role in addressing food insecurity and financial exclusion in urban slums. Collectively, these shops represent the vast majority of the retail trade in the developing world, but their fragmented and inefficient supply chain force the poor to pay a premium for food and other basic goods. Origin offers a low cost tablet with a tailored point of sale system to small retailers. Our platform aggregates purchase orders and reshapes the supply chain, creating a positive cycle of increasing margins for their business as well as more affordable food for the slum dweller.Origin leverages the value of big data by delivering real time customer analytics and market insights to consumer goods companies, allowing them to better understand and serve the needs of the urban poor. With thousands of small shops connected on our network we can better engage with the private sector and create a world where small retail makes a big impact on global food security.
