Maalexi is a blockchain enabled demand-aggregating digital ecosystem that helps small food and agri-businesses directly access cross-border trade, and finance. The platform helps small local exporters, processors, and producers to sell more, and realize better margins, by facilitating their trade with medium and large buyers in international markets, and securing the risks in these complex cross-border trades on its full-stack platform. Deal origination, execution and financing happen at one-place for both – the buyers and sellers engaging in trade, and the financial institutions financing these trades. Maalexi mitigates key trade risks in cross-border trade which include: Counterparty, Demand & Supply, Legal, Quality & Quantity, Document and Delivery, and Payment or Credit, hence making these trades secure, and bankable.
