Bangladeshis are celebrating the end of an autocrat’s reign. Now the caretaker leader, Muhammad Yunus, needs to try to rebuild democracy. Bangladesh matters; it must not be allowed to fail https://t.co/RuUmm7TLqu

2023 was a year of many wins for us at @HelloShopUp 🙏

🔥 10 Lakh / 1 Million metric tonnes of food and essentials ordered on our platform and delivered by us

🚀 These food & essentials reached 3.1 Crore / 31 Million people throughout the nation

🍏 All our businesses are now ebitda profitable while our monthly revenue doubled in the last 12 months.

👊 7000+ people directly/indirectly helping propel this rocketship throughout the nation

But the real win? Knowing why the retailers love us!

Some may miss the old ways, but retailers & consumers deserve better 💪

We are aiming to cover half of Bangladesh by 2026. That’s 8 Crore people getting quality food and essentials from the friendly neighborhood shopkeepers.

With Great p̶o̶w̶e̶r̶ Distribution Network, Comes Great Responsibility.

Observing many firms struggle with governance challenges. You can eliminate potential lapses by documenting & auditing these four crucial pillars. Even DDs will become straightforward.
1️⃣ Movement of Cash
2️⃣ Movement of Goods
3️⃣ Tax Invoices
4️⃣ KYC of customers & vendors

Not yet 18, Tamim Iqbal exploded into public imagination when he took India on at the biggest stage 🔥

Been playing around with Adobe’s new Photoshop AI generative fill tool.

It’s nuts.

Take any shape outline then pick a color and you can fill the entire shape interior. Graphic designers are done.
