Raino Tech4Impact platform Markiti has been selected to benefit from Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition(GAIN) Keeping Food Markets Working (KFMW) Covid19 Response Fund. Under this program, Raino Tech4Impact will receive funding and technical assistance for the smart distribution of affordable nutritious fish products like Omena.
Omena has high nutritional value and is rich in proteins, minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants. Omena accounts for 70% of fish consumed in low-income households because it is readily available and affordable in Eastern and Southern Africa.
About Markiti Platform
Markiti, an informal word meaning market place, this platform was developed by Raino Tech4impact Ltd as a response to the COVID -19 disruption in the local food distribution channels, cutting the supply of nutritious foods in urban low-income areas – the Platform mainly focuses on white meat products, leveraging on decentralized cold chain and in the last 12 months has distributed over 5000 orders.
