Local use cases

Made for everyday Kenyan buying and selling.

A farmer in Kiambu records the animals, adds a price and location, then posts. Buyers can see the listing in the feed and message directly, without a broker setting the conversation for them.

Farm produce & livestock

A phone dealer in town posts a clean iPhone with clear photos, video and a price. Someone nearby spots it while scrolling, asks a few questions, and they decide where to meet.

Electronics & phones

Shopi keeps the classifieds idea people know from sites like Jiji, but makes discovery feel closer to a social feed. The difference is simple: every post is something for sale, with a seller you can message.

Fashion, furniture & more
