🎉Congratulations ChipChip on reaching this impressive milestone!
🌟 1 Million Milestone Achieved! 🌟 We’re thrilled to announce that ChipChip has crossed an incredible milestone: 1,000,000 kilograms of farm products sourced directly from farmers and delivered to our customers' doorsteps! 🎉 This achievement represents much more than a number. In a country where e-commerce marketplaces are still in their infancy, this milestone is a testament to innovation, resilience, and the power of community-driven solutions. Through group buying, thousands of customers have embraced a new way of shopping: ✔️ Ordering online. ✔️ Paying digitally. ✔️ Receiving fresh, high-quality products at their doorstep. At the same time, ChipChip's farm-to-fork model ensures better earnings for farmers by eliminating middlemen, empowering local producers, and making essential goods more affordable for everyone. This journey wouldn’t have been possible without the unwavering support of our partners, investors, and the trust of our incredible customers. Your belief in our mission has been instrumental in transforming this vision into a reality. To our farmers, team, and all those who made this possible: This milestone is for all of us. 💚 Here’s to creating even greater impact, one order at a time! 🙌 #ChipChip #Ethiopia #Ecommerce #FarmToFork #GroupBuying #Innovation #1Million GIZ Ethiopia and Djibouti Renew Capital Mesirat Ethiopia

Entrepreneur: “Would you invest in my business?” Me, sipping egg nog: “Depends… Got a billion-dollar market?” Entrepreneur: “Um, no.” Me: “Then probably not.” Here’s the truth: ❌ Not every business is a fit for VC funding. Venture capital thrives on scaling solutions in massive markets. But for many incredible small businesses, options like local angel investors, impact funds or even grants might be a better fit. 🎁 Understanding your funding path = your holiday gift to yourself.
