ITEA is a web based platform for small and informal businesses aimed at improving their footprint but above all to try and keep money circulating ekasi by exposing the services offered locally. We also aim to change the mindset of local consumers in believing local produce is inferior compared to services received from malls and other established businesses. The need to support local products and entrepreneurs is vast and that's where growing our economy needs to start. App coming soon...
