[Geneva, Switzerland]
In July and August 2023, the Solevo Group, a leading specialty chemicals distribution platform, launched the “My Solevo” procurement application to a select group of partners in Côte d’Ivoire and Cameroon.
The “My Solevo” application provides distributors with real-time access to essential information, such as order history, available credit, and product availability for pickup. This tool is designed to significantly enhance transparency and streamline the distribution process.
Martin Sengel, Head of IT at Solevo, explains, “The “My Solevo” application revolutionizes how distributors interact with our systems, giving them not only real-time access to their account but also digitalizes the ordering process. During this first phase, and as it continues to expand over time, we strongly believe that the ‘My Solevo’ application will have a positive impact on our partners by accelerating the growth of local distributors, optimizing their operations, and boosting their capabilities.”
The development of “My Solevo” underscores Solevo’s unwavering commitment to transforming the agricultural landscape in Africa through the power of technology. This launch not only represents a significant leap forward for the company but also emphasizes Solevo’s dedication to sustainability and innovation in the agro-chemical distribution sector.
Franck Chabert, Business Line Director Agro at Solevo, emphasizes the bigger picture: “The ‘My Solevo’ app is just the beginning of our extensive digitalization journey. We’re dedicated to introducing innovative digital solutions that fill critical gaps in the agricultural sector. By empowering farmers, agribusinesses, and all key players in the agricultural value chain, we’re setting the stage for sustainable agricultural growth across Africa.”
The rollout of “My Solevo” in Côte d’Ivoire and Cameroon is just the first step in a broader strategy to expand this application to other African nations in the coming year.
