🔬Why Palmyra

Building solutions for commodity sectors in emerging markets

Our story....why did we launch Palmyra?

zenGate Global, the company behind the Palmyra Platform was founded in 2022 with the key mission to bring financial inclusion for businesses through building paradigm shifting solutions.

From our travels and conducting business in emerging markets, we found that many of the businesses in these regions struggled to keep up with the digital transformation process. Ultimately, it has marginalized their role within the global value chain and eroded their share of the profit pool. As a result, we noticed that many of these businesses were actively seeking the tools and the opportunities to enhance their global edge.

Our goal from the start was to address these opportunities, and empower these businesses...hand in hand on the ground.

Through Palmyra, we believe we can add value to existing commodity markets by building innovative infrastructure to provide access and connectivity between stakeholders across global supply chains. This includes micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) transacting among themselves, to large regulatory and trade bodies creating market frameworks.

There is a tremendous opportunity to build these tools and help businesses leapfrog, instead of simply catching up.
