We're taking a trillion dollar industry online

• In the fashion industry, for a retailer to get in contact with a brand, they generally need to have at least 7 emails back and forth before they can place an order
• Both brands and retailers still rely on Pen-and-Paper and excel order sheets over email to place orders, over 96% of the time, across the Middle East
• Once orders are placed, more than 60% retailers block 100% of their cash upfront and wait for around 6 weeks to book and receive their shipments
• International brands are hungry to expand to Emerging Markets, increasing the need for a seamless experience that fosters efficiency and trust for both parties

Creating the gateway to emerging markets

• Kingpin’s Mission
  • Kingpin is on a mission to bridge the gap between international brands and retailers across emerging markets
