GrowSari is a tech-enabled B2B platform that helps the Philippines’ over one million sari-sari stores get better service level, assortment, and access to new services, outfitting them with both the infrastructure and tools they need to transform themselves from simple FMCG outlets to comprehensive service hubs for the nation’s grassroots communities.
GrowSari started in 2016 as an ordering platform servicing roughly sari-sari stores in three cities. Today, GrowSari powers the management, growth, and analytics infrastructure of over 50,000 stores in 100 cities actively ordering on the platform each month. In addition to providing affordable, on-demand inventory as well as working capital loans, GrowSari’s platform also generates crucial data & insights into the operations of these stores for manufacturers and distributors to build their strategies and campaigns upon. GrowSari has also integrated multiple-microservices such as telco load, bills pay, e-commerce, wifi and other eservices, allowing store-owners to maximize their capital in one wallet and easily expand their business.
