Service Description

The General Merchandise Discount Store Website In Kenya package by Black Shepherd Technologies is a fast-paced, high-efficiency e-commerce solution, priced at $\text{KSh 185,000}$. It is specifically engineered for entrepreneurs pursuing a high-volume, low-margin business model common in the general merchandise and discount sectors (often referred to as ‘catch-all’ or ‘variety’ stores).This solution is optimized for a dropshipping strategy, which is ideal for this model as it allows you to test thousands of products quickly without locking capital in inventory. The core value of this package lies in its operational efficiency features—Bulk Product Import Readiness—and its conversion-boosting tool, the Flash Sale Countdown Timer.
