It is about the millions of local businesses struggling to lay their foundation and grow. In 2020, we started Brass with the simple belief that businesses everywhere can have access to top-end money operations and cashflow services to ensure they can finance their business growth with cheaper and easy-to-access financing throughout their lifetime.

Many African businesses do not have the opportunity to access the tools and services they need to accelerate their growth and so we decided to build financial products that work in their favour. We have made some good progress since then. We created products that work to provide clarity into your business' finance and decisions. Our products today help thousands of businesses do better with their money operations, from accepting payments to taking care of supplier payments, we ensure that the process is efficient.

This is just the beginning however. Our mission is to make economic prosperity more accessible to everyone. We know and understand that if we must succeed at providing this, there is a lot of work ahead of us. We know and understand this which is why everyday, we work closely with our customers, identifying the different ways we can support them and move their business further.

Our customers employ tens of people, therefore increasing the labour force. They come in various types and sizes with varying needs. Some are in retail, while others are in services and as we talk to many of them, we see how our work is very important and we take that very seriously.

We believe that small businesses matter and the bigger ones need better services. Support in form of capital and other growth services should be easily accessible to them. Financial services must be honest. People must be treated well. And because we believe so much in all these, we get up everyday to ensure that our work promotes our mission.

Our promise to you is simple. To continuously elevate what it means to deliver great services that can make entrepreneurship more permission-less and successful.

We are building at the union of business, financial services and technology. While it can be challenging, it is also exciting. If you wish to learn more about our work, you can always contact us. If you share in our mission and like us, you are inspired to help develop the SME economy in the emerging markets -it is important work that must be done, please look out for our career opportunities. Come do your best work with us.

We care very deeply about our work and the kind of impacts we can make with it. We have a very few sets of beliefs and strongly-held ideas we're betting on, about the future of enterprise and commerce in emerging economies.

We are, therefore, building commerce-enabling financial products, from the ground up, stacks of new services, honest and very critical, to help local businesses become more successful.

We serve thousands of businesses today but we are just getting started. They share their stories on how much Brass has done. We will continue to work to make entrepreneurship more permissionless and successful on the continent and everywhere else it is most needed.
