Founding Business Program

Put your Ethiopian business on the founding wall.

The first 100 members to join become Premium Founders. Join as a founding business: your founder number is permanent, your business can appear on the public Founders wall, and you help decide what EthioBazaar builds first.

  • Free, a few minutes, no account and no contract.
  • A permanent founder number, and a place on the public Founders wall if you choose it.
  • Priority consideration for featuring and early marketplace tools, never guaranteed customers or revenue.

FAQ

Questions business owners ask.

Can businesses join?

Yes. Restaurants, shops, cafés, grocery stores, fashion, beauty, catering, delivery, professional services and more. Founding businesses help shape categories, features and city priorities.

Is joining free?

Yes. Joining the waitlist is free for individuals, businesses and creators, and it is not a contract.

What is a Founder badge?

A permanent record of when you joined. Your waitlist number is assigned by our database the moment you submit, never changes and is never moved by referrals. The first 100 members are Premium Founders, #101–500 Gold, #501–1,000 Silver, #1,001–5,000 Bronze, then Early Founder, Early Member and Community Member up to #50,000. Founder badges are recognition, not verification: they do not mean a business is verified, recommended or top-rated, and the benefits are priority consideration and early access, not guaranteed placement, customers or revenue. All counts shown on this page come from the real waitlist.

Does joining require a commitment?

No. You can ignore our emails, unsubscribe at any time, or ask us to delete your data. Marketing consent is separate and optional.

Can shops sell products?

That is the plan: online storefronts, local discovery and, later, payments and shipping. Shopping is a major pillar of EthioBazaar, not a side feature.

Will there be food delivery?

Possibly, in cities where restaurants and customers want it. Delivery is one of many things the survey asks about; it is not a promise.

Discover. Shop. Eat. Connect.

Join the global waitlist and tell us what your city needs.

Two minutes. No account. Your answers decide which categories, features and cities we build first.
