How it works

From application to island-wide supply in six steps.

A structured commercial journey with verification before activation: join, build presence, coordinate samples, let Zanzibaba represent you, receive opportunities, then supply and deliver.

01

Join

Choose the market-access programme that suits your company.

You do:
Submit the structured application and pick a starting programme — the calculator can recommend one.
Zanzibaba does:
Review your company, verify registration and confirm commercial fit for your categories.

An approved partner record with a verification status you can track.

02

Build your presence

Create your company profile and publish selected products through the Zanzibaba digital showroom.

Share your logo, company story, product selection and any catalogues or price lists.
Zanzibaba does:
Build your company profile and publish listings into the customer-facing marketplace — no duplicate records.

03

Send products / samples

Send samples, catalogues or display units where the programme includes physical presence.

Products buyers can touch — the step that converts browsers into specifiers.

04

Route qualified RFQs to you, protect your contact details until opportunities are real, and track every stage.

Quotations, samples, meetings and orders — visible in your partner dashboard as it rolls out.

06

Supply & deliver

The supplier and Zanzibaba coordinate supply, importation, procurement and/or local delivery depending on the agreement.

You do:
Supply directly, or let Zanzibaba procure and coordinate on the customer's behalf per agreement.
Zanzibaba does:
Coordinate importation, consolidation and last-mile delivery to site; confirm receipt and close the loop.
Outcome:
Delivered projects — and a reference customer for the next one.

Verification before activation

Nothing goes public before it is checked. Every partner passes through company verification, and every listing passes through approval — which is exactly why buyers trust the marketplace your products appear in.

  • • Company registration checked before any public listing
  • • Brand pages gated: private draft → review → approved/public
  • • No invented prices — public figures come only from data you approve
  • • No guaranteed leads, sales or ROI is ever promised
  • • Programme fees and deal commissions kept as separate, written concepts
