The future is not global, it’s local 🤝 !
Communities with a majority of households with relatively low-incomes, are likely to have more expensive cost-of-living. A nutritious diet is more expensive in a vulnerable neighborhood due to logistical challenges and informality. Low-income people pay 25 to 30% more for their food every day. That’s fundamentally wrong! How can we change this?
One powerful solution could be with Community Purchase! Nilus is a solution in Argentina 🇦🇷 and Mexico 🇲🇽 , to bundle purchases of several families located in the same community, to lower the costs for all of them. This is called community group buying. The average saving realised is 21% to the families joining! By also integrating circularity in the solution and community, Nilus is tapping into food products that are at risk of being wasted. While also sourcing products directly from suppliers to lower intermediation costs. Better for supplier, as well as for the consumer.
When community members team-up and take the lead in collective actions, it’s bound to deliver powerful solutions. Get inspired by the community leaders like Alejandra and Pablo – and follow suit! Check out their stories here: https://www.nilus.co/en-US
Thanks Ady Beitler and the whole Nilus team, for leading these efforts empowering communities with this powerful solution.
