Tendo

Tendo is a social-commerce reselling platform for individuals and suppliers in Ghana that supports inventory-free online selling through a mobile app.

Key capabilities include:

• Wholesale product catalog: Browse thousands of products listed at wholesale prices across categories such as electronics, beauty and hair, fashion, essentials, and accessories.
• Markup and reselling tools: Add a custom profit margin per product, then share listings to channels like WhatsApp and other social networks (with product images and descriptions).
• Order, delivery, and payout handling: Submit customer orders in-app; the platform handles fulfillment and delivery and then pays out the reseller’s profit after each sale.
• Supplier distribution channel: Suppliers can list products at wholesale prices for resellers to sell; the platform collects orders weekly and manages deliveries.

Available on Android and iOS, with a web presence for marketing, supplier onboarding, and sign-in/sign-up.

It primarily serves individual resellers (students, side hustlers, informal traders) who want to sell without upfront stock, plus suppliers and wholesalers seeking additional last-mile distribution via a reseller network.

Notable in the African context, it is currently live in Ghana with a waitlist for users outside Ghana, and it has been referenced by Y Combinator as enabling inventory-free online selling connected to local wholesalers.
