The Horasis-Nigeria Economic Development Council created as a result of this endorsement by President Buhari has given birth to this agricultural and halal sector-focused initiative to connect Nigeria to the world within a secure and globally accepted platform.
This Initiative would execute the collaborative launch of Nigeria's debut on the world’s ONLY agricultural and Halal e-commerce solution integrating both Blockchain and supply chain traceability to verify agricultural and Halal certificates as well as food origin and guaranteed off-takers.
This world’s first B2B e-commerce marketplace for agricultural and halal food is a digital platform that integrates sustainability into an end-to-end supply chain, seamlessly connecting guaranteed buyers and suppliers in a singular customer journey and creating one ecosystem that serves the world and in particular, health-conscious consumers.
This platform is endorsed by the World Economic Forum, and the International Trade Center emerging top 3 at the IFC/World Bank 9th International Food Safety Forum 2021
