How Munafrica Used Odoo to Build a Thriving Online Marketplace
Company’s Info
Mun-Africa, the online B2B and B2C marketplace based in Burkina Faso is an innovative platform that facilitates e-commerce activities within the country.
This marketplace serves as a virtual marketplace where buyers, suppliers, and resellers can connect, engage in trade, and conduct business transactions online.
The platform allows small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), resellers, and suppliers to showcase their products to a wider audience. This exposure can lead to increased visibility, sales, and business growth.
How Webkul Helped Mun-Africa
When Mun-Africa approached us regarding building a new marketplace.
They were looking for services through a reputed Odoo development company.
Webkul suggested leveraging the power of Odoo as a robust platform for their needs.
During our discussions on building a marketplace that caters to B2B and B2C requirements. Webkul recommended utilizing their marketplace module as a base module .
Further, this module provides a comprehensive set of features designed specifically for online marketplaces.
This enables Mun-Africa to create a dynamic platform that facilitates transactions between businesses and consumers.
The approach we followed!!
Mun-Africa offers customers and businesses to purchase products from various categories with the help of the Odoo platform.
Webkul assisted Mun-Africa by providing customization services and module integrations to enhance its marketplace based on the Odoo platform.
We customized our Odoo Marketplace Multi Step Vendor Signup module to allow resellers and suppliers to register themselves so that the admin gets every necessary information with the help of the Odoo Multi-Vendor Marketplace.
Further, To enforce specific rules for resellers based on their location, We (Webkul) used our GeoIP Redirect module. This fetches the customer’s location and then shows products based on the location selected.
Webkul implemented the changes in the interface and added the functionality of multi-country, multi-language, and multi-currency.
Along with that, they used the Webkul module Odoo Website Product Slot Pricing to add various discounts/ price slots/ offers on their products. Which was further based on various parameters like time duration, quantity, etc. as an additional benefit.
In addition, a custom module called Website Cinetpay Checkout Payment Acquirer, was made compatible with Website Wallet: Add Money and Website e-Wallet.
This integration enhanced the checkout and payment process for customers using the Cinetpay payment gateway.
Further, the module also defined managers based on country with different access rights such as sales orders, invoicing, etc.
