"This is the essence of being an entrepreneur in the developing world. It is to fill an institutional void in a
way that allows a transaction that was fiendishly complex and costly to occur in the past to now be
consummated and to actually happen.”
Professor Tarun Khanna, Harvard Business School

Sub-Saharan Africa’s 45,000,000 informal retailers are defined by institutional voids.
There is no Amazon marketplace, there is no Alibaba, there is no Costco, there is no Wal-Mart.
Payment is predatory, supply chain is a nightmare, businesses are run by entrepreneurs holding smartphones in
one hand for WhatsApp and Facebook but still managing their business with pen and paper.
“When I want to get more fabric for
my tailor shop, I close my shop and
take the twenty hour bus to Nairobi.”
Acayo, Tailor in Kakuma, Kenya
“I am interested in advertising but
don’t know how. Customers just
know my shop. It has a good location
and we give good customer care.”
Sameer, Shoe Cobbler in Malindi,
Kenya

Sweat equity shares can be earned by each and every
InfiniteUp partner.
If InfiniteUp wins big, then InfiniteUp’s early adopters
and biggest believers across Africa win big.
We are going in the same direction: to be the winner
that dominates a natural monopoly.
