Sanad Yaghi's startup Dukkantek began with a single question: "How can you deliver groceries from mom-and-pop shops that can't afford to list their products on an aggregator?" Sounds simple, right? Think again. Coming up with the answer proved to be a complex task. Sanad and his co-founders quickly realised they had to solve these small merchants' broader problems of inventory management, POS and lack of a digital presence. They spent 6-months going store-to-store and talking to the vendors before coming up with their solution. The result? A revolutionary store management platform that "spread like hot cakes" and is changing the lives of small business owners across Kuwait, the UAE and Oman. 24-year-old Sanad stepped up to the mic on The Change Officer Podcast to share Dukkantek's fascinating story with our host Vuk. They spoke about the nitty-gritty of what goes into creating a successful social impact startup.
