We are giving them an active pipeline, Martin Fitzgerald, CEO and Co-founder of Kwayga

Covid-19 has focused businesses more and more on their supply chains. Covid-19 has also made trade fairs and face to face meetings more or less a thing of the past. On top of that the Russian invasion of Ukraine has disrupted supplies of certain products such as sunflower oil. This has resulted in businesses seeking new solutions to help buyers diversify their suppliers, and suppliers to diversify their markets.

Kwayga, an Irish start-up from Cork has identified an opportunity to bring better security to the global food supply chain by matching food buyers and suppliers in a trustworthy way. Ronan talks to Martin Fitzgerald, CEO and Co-founder of Kwayga about this and more.

Martin talks about his background, what Kwayga does, dealing with pandemic and Brexit, their future plans, dealing with different languages and cultures.

More about Kwayga:

Kwayga is a B2B matching platform for buyers and suppliers in the food and beverage sector designed around trust and security. Using the platform buyers and suppliers discover, verify, match, connect, communicate in any language and trade.

Finding new, good quality national and international suppliers or buyers, and being able to establish trust is a huge challenge that takes too much time and costs too much money and resources, especially for mid-sized companies.

If a business is great at what it does, it should be easy for it to establish trust and securely trade with other businesses anywhere, in any language, at any time. Empowering buyers and suppliers to do this is Kwayga’s mission.
