Exploring the streets of Hong Kong! In 2007, I had the opportunity to spend 4 days in #hongkong It was a blast and hands down some of the best food I ever had! Check out the @vendedy app to access local products while you travel the globe! Find more info here: http://goo.gl/8SpU7g #Vendedy #ad #sk
In August, we have two Dartmouth-affiliated startups. The first spotlight is on the startup Vendedy founded by Christine Souffrant. “The journey of launching Vendedy started from childhood. As a daughter of three generations of Haitian female street vendors, I grew up understanding that the way of life for many was selling in the streets. My mother immigrated to NYC and did what she knew best- sell Haitian artwork on the streets of Manhattan. Two billion people currently live in poverty, of which many make a living as street vendors due to limited employment. Despite the fact that well over one billion people travel the globe annually as tourists, volunteers, students, and for business, these street sellers still have inconsistent access to global consumers. Vendedy is a mobile network (marketplace) connecting global travelers to street vendors all over the world.” Click here to learn more about Vendedy.
Vendedy is a social enterprise start-up that is digitising the street vending industry via mobile technology. For the first time, street vendors can upload photos of their products online via mobile so that a traveling consumer can search, purchase, and pay for an item via SMS. Local agents deliver the product to the consumer’s hotel during their stay. Vendedy leverages a global mobile SMS platform to support commerce in third world markets. This innovation streamlines the whole purchase and payment process not only for street vendors but also for the traveling consumers. While street vendors get a fair deal and global marketplace for their crafts, consumers can access remote artisan designs that come with a story from over 150+ countries in real time.
