A shop sharing platform shall soon be launched by 33 Solutions Ghana Limited for entrepreneurs and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to help small businesses market their products with ease.

The new and innovative concept christened, “Shop Share,” is a shop sharing stand for entrepreneurs, brands and small businesses that offers business owners the opportunity to rent a space in the organisation’s shop on short-term basis.

Ms AdwoaAgyemang, the Project Lead for Shop Share, told the Ghana News Agency on Wednesday that acquisition of the space was hassle free with no long contract or commitment, “just flexible terms and space to sell your products.”

“We offer low budget rental spaces from as little as GHC 20 per day and this comes with allocated space to display and sell your products in the shop and free staffing to look after your stock, record sales and serve your customers; free up your time to do something else.”

It also goes with free storage space for stocks to make it easier for replenishment, free promotion and marketing of one’s business social media platforms and other media opportunities.

Shop owners would also benefit from tenants of Shop Share who can visit the shops to see how things are going, take stock or replenish new product lines and allow owners to participate in monthly open market day events.

“Many other locations will follow on this year. We are thrilled to offer this unique opportunity for small businesses, often start-ups and early-stage entrepreneurs operating from their homes get asked the question, “where can we find your products,” Ms Agyemang said.

“Shop Share has come to provide a solution and an answer to that question on a cost-effective model, as such to need to get your own shop at high cost of 1 to 5 years rent advance,” she added: “Saves your time, money and gives you a platform to be showcase your products and invite your clients to buy from a one-stop shop.”

The first Shop is located in East Legon close to A & C Mall, Lizzy Sports Complex, and American House. The organisation is scheduled to open on 1st August 2018.
