Inflation: GoSource Tackles Nigeria’s Food Procurement Challenges

An agro-tech platform transforming how restaurants source ingredients and create unforgettable dishes, GoSource has introduced an innovative digital platform that connects restaurants directly with trusted farmers and suppliers.

Disclosing this in a statement, GoSource said it is doing this by eliminating intermediaries who often inflate prices. The firm said it ensures that businesses have access to high-quality produce at more affordable rates, helping them maintain the freshness and quality of their offerings.

Co-founders Lanre Bello and Victor Nneji said GoSource has emerged as a beacon of hope amidst challenges confronting the vibrant culinary scene, known for its street food and bustling restaurants.
According to the statement, “Rising food costs and unreliable supply chains threaten the survival of many businesses in the sector. But GoSource is tackling these problems. Our platform is more than just a procurement tool; it provides essential stability for businesses facing market turbulence. Using data-driven insights to predict client needs, GoSource stocks essential goods in advance, allowing restaurants to mitigate the effects of fluctuating prices. This foresight enables restaurant owners to focus on delivering exceptional dining experiences without the constant stress of rising costs.

“Additionally, GoSource offers a credit system to alleviate financial pressure on food vendors. This model allows restaurants to maintain operations and uphold quality standards despite economic hardship. With GoSource’s support, chefs can continue creating culinary masterpieces without fear of running out of the resources needed to keep their kitchens running smoothly. Sustainability is a key pillar of GoSource’s mission. The platform helps reduce the carbon footprint associated with food procurement by streamlining the supply chain and minimising transportation and packaging. This eco-friendly approach aligns with the growing consumer demand for sustainability and promotes a more resilient food industry in the face of Nigeria’s economic challenges.”

“As GoSource expands its operations from Lagos to Abuja, it’s clear that this platform is more than just a service—a movement. GoSource fosters resilience in the culinary community, encourages adaptation, and drives innovation.
