OmniRetail has launched OmniOne, a platform for FMCG makers to digitise distribution, improve data visibility, and connect financing across West Africa.
OmniRetail has launched OmniOne, a new platform for FMCG manufacturers. It aims to digitise distribution workflows and connect them to data and financing. The company operates in Nigeria, Ghana, and Côte d’Ivoire.
OmniRetail launched OmniOne to help fast-moving consumer goods manufacturers manage distribution and financing in one place. FMCG means everyday products that sell quickly, like food, drinks, and household items.
The company already runs a B2B e-commerce marketplace for retailers through OmniBiz. OmniOne extends that infrastructure to manufacturers, using OmniRetail’s existing distributor and retailer network.
OmniRetail says the new platform turns its distribution layer into a system that also delivers data visibility, meaning clearer, near real-time insight into stock movement, orders, and retailer demand. It also supports financial services, which can include credit and payment tools that help move money through the supply chain with fewer delays.
The launch is positioned against a market where the distribution layer is still fragmented. In many routes to market, orders are placed by phone or during in-person visits, and payments are split across multiple channels. That can slow replenishment and lead to missed sales.
Deepankar Rustagi, OmniRetail’s founder and CEO, said OmniBiz “earned the trust, built the network, and generated the data that makes OmniOne possible.” He added that manufacturers, distributors, and financial institutions can “plug into what we have built and scale faster alongside us.”
For FMCG manufacturers, better distribution data can improve forecasting, reduce stockouts, and make sales teams more efficient. For distributors and retailers, integrated ordering and payments can shorten cash cycles, meaning money returns faster after goods are sold.
The financing angle is notable because working capital is a common bottleneck in traditional trade, which still represents most retail activity in markets like Nigeria. If OmniOne can connect verified sales data to credit decisions, it could make lending less guesswork-driven.
