Built for Gauteng
Local truth
Density, load‑shedding, and multilingual households are normal here — product choices should reflect that.
Spaza shops as pickup points
Where door‑to‑door is expensive (parts of Soweto, Tembisa, etc.), partner trusted spaza counters as collection hubs.
Shop owner earns a small fee per parcel (e.g. ~R5); customer gets free pickup. Tagline space: “We deliver to your corner spaza.”
Voice notes from farmers
Optional 15‑second farmer voice notes (“Baie lekker — the spinach is sweet from last night’s dew”) instead of generic pings.
Natural fit for WhatsApp‑first users; pairs with our existing WhatsApp contact surface.
Gauteng growing seasons content
Push and blog rhythm: “Last week for heirloom tomatoes before winter.” Educates on seasonality and reduces “why is this missing?” support.
Multi‑language UI
Settings toggle: English, Afrikaans, isiZulu for chrome, buttons, and transactional notifications — product names can stay bilingual where helpful.
A serious trust signal for Pretoria and peri‑urban households.
