“Millions of small businesses on the African continent are hindered by their capital being tied up in receivables. Our primary goal is to empower these businesses with the liquidity that they need, when they need it. This flexibility ensures that these SMEs can better manage cash flow, expand their customer base, and take on new contracts.” according to Angel Onuoha, CEO and co-founder of Zuvy.
Zuvy will use the funds to increase its reach and satisfy the rising demand from Nigerian vendors.
