On-demand printing service (flyers, business cards, banners, T-shirts) delivered within 24h anywhere in the city, ordered via WhatsApp or mobile app. Orders are produced in a central workshop and delivered by motorbike courier.
The Problem
Traditional print shops have 3-7 day turnarounds and require in-person visits; entrepreneurs seek fast solutions for their communication materials.
The Opportunity
Small business creation is booming in urban Africa (+15%/year); each new business needs printed communication materials.
The Concept
Digital printing workshop (large format printer + screen printing) with online ordering, client-approved digital proof, and D+1 production and delivery.
The "Secret Sauce" (USP)
- 100% WhatsApp ordering: zero friction
- 24h deadline guaranteed or 20% refund
- Prices 30% lower than traditional print shops (no storefront)
Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
To get started quickly:1 large-format inkjet printer, manual WhatsApp order taking, and 5 first clients in 30 days.
