Trade Afrika • Ecosystem
Building the digital rails for Africa's trade ecosystem.
TAG connects marketplaces, logistics, payments, and skills into one ecosystem, so African businesses can trade confidently across borders.
Our ecosystem
Born from Africa, built for interconnected trade.
TAG was founded to make African trade digital, transparent, and globally competitive. The TAG ecosystem goes beyond single products, it provides the shared rails that connect merchants, logistics partners, financiers, and institutions into one interoperable network.
Every transaction, shipment, and verification leaves a trusted data trail, so businesses can trade faster, with less friction, and more confidence.
Solving fragmentation
Solving fragmentation through aggregation.
Across MSMEs, trade documentation, logistics partners, and payments, TAG turns disconnected systems into one interoperable network so businesses don't have to stitch everything together themselves.
The ecosystem brings together the core digital infrastructure needed to move from one-off transactions to long-term cross-border growth.
Merchants create & manage trade on TAG
Businesses list products, manage orders, and coordinate fulfilment from a single, unified interface.
Logistics partners move goods across borders
Trusted logistics partners provide routes, capacity, and tracking across key African trade corridors.
Financial partners power payments & capital
Secure payments, escrow, and credit products reduce risk, improve cashflow, and unlock bigger deals.
TAG orchestrates data, trust, and insights
The TAG network brings the data together, empowering visibility, risk scoring, and smarter decisions for everyone.
Network effect
Every new merchant, logistics partner, or financial institution that joins TAG doesn't just get value, they create it for everyone else on the network. Better routes, deeper liquidity, richer data, and more trusted trade relationships.
That's the power of building an ecosystem.
