At the beginning of the year — the team dedicated time and resources to achieve this milestone of a new website with one goal alone — make online shopping easy, and six months in customers have a platform to navigate quickly and even benefit from financially.

So what’s new?

Do you think Pricepally is only for bulk purchases? Wait until you try the Make a List feature that allows you to buy your shopping list quickly.🛒

Make a List

Instead of buying in bulk, you can now opt to purchase your favorite food items in smaller quantities and have them delivered to your doorstep! For example, you can buy as small as a Derica of crayfish or a paint bucket of Garri, pepper, tomatoes, etc.

Estate & Workplace Cooperatives

Estate and workplace cooperatives consist of people who live in the same area, work in the same workplace, and prefer to order as a group to a shared address to enjoy free delivery and other pecks.

International News

Farmers benefit from the Digitisation of Mechanised Farming in Kenya.

The benefits of modern technology adoption in agriculture can not be exhausted. With the future of farming resting with the emerging small-scale and middle-class farmers, there is an urgent need to empower this group to ensure food security.

Digitization in mechanized farming has proven to be highly beneficial to Kenya’s agriculture sector. According to Harriet Tergat, Digitization and Communications Lead, Farm to Market Alliance in Kenya (FtMA-Kenya), an alliance of Kenyan agri-focused organizations that supports mechanization through digitization, the technology is transforming agriculture. She says it has brought efficiency, decreased production and operations costs, optimization, and transparency.

A Kenyan farmer who has benefited from the scheme indicated that his potato yields per acre had increased by over 50 percent since he enrolled in the AMS program last year. In his words — “The equipment makes it possible for me to undertake more than one activity in the farm, thus saving the long-term costs and improving productivity.”
