How does 8Move handle real-time rerouting in Lagos traffic?

Fleet Planner monitors route conditions and pushes updated stop sequences to DriverPro when faster alternatives are available — the driver follows the updated route without contacting dispatch.

Can 8Move manage thousands of small traditional-trade orders efficiently?

SupplyNow processes WhatsApp, SMS, and phone orders into the same pipeline at scale — without manual data entry for each order.

How is different brand data separated in a multi-brand distributor operation?

Each brand principal has an isolated data partition. Sales, pricing, and customer data for each brand are visible only to that brand's authorized users.

Does 8Move optimize for fuel efficiency on Nigerian routes?

Fleet Planner minimizes total kilometers driven while respecting capacity constraints — optimizing fuel cost per delivery unit, not just stop sequence.

Can the WhatsApp ordering bot operate in Nigerian Pidgin or Hausa?

The bot can be configured for local language patterns. WhatsApp message parsing uses NLP that handles informal text input in multiple languages.

Industry Challenges

Common obstacles and pain points that organizations in this industry encounter in their daily operations and growth.

Lagos and Accra traffic density makes delivery time windows impossible to guarantee without adaptive real-time rerouting

Traditional trade is the dominant retail channel — distributors serve thousands of small kiosks, roadside stalls, and market vendors, each with small, frequent orders

Multi-brand distributor operations require strict data separation by principal — different pricing, promotions, and targets per brand

Fuel cost volatility in Nigeria requires route efficiency to be managed per kilometer, not per stop count
