What you receive

Digital transformation, funded and done with you.

The program isn't a cheque — it's everything a small business needs to operate digitally, with the cost covered by the grant.

01 · The grant

A service grant of ₦500,000–1,000,000

Awarded per selected business and applied directly to its digital transformation — platform setup, design and launch. The amount is set by the business's stage and needs.

02 · The tools

Business management on Vendoor

The full platform our customers run on:

  • Website & online store
  • Bookings & appointments
  • Inventory & stock
  • Invoicing
  • Customers & analytics
03 · The hands

Onboarding, training and support

Our team sets the business up — products, services, branding — and trains the owner and staff to run it. You're never left alone with software.

Who it's for

Built for the businesses that run our cities.

If customers can buy it, book it or order it — it belongs online. We select businesses that are serious about growing digitally.

Shops & boutiques

Retail, fashion and electronics moving from counter sales to online orders.

Salons, spas & barbers

Appointment businesses replacing walk-in guesswork with self-booking.

Restaurants & cafés

Menus, orders and reservations handled in one place.

Clinics & professionals

Practices and consultants managing clients, schedules and records.

Studios & creators

Photographers, designers and makers selling work and taking commissions.

Startups & new ventures

Teams launching with digital operations from day one, not retrofitting later.
