Putting Smiles on Faces, One Village at a Time 😊
At Dots for, every service we offer is designed with one goal in mind: to create real impact in the lives of people in rural Africa. Our Marketplace service is a beautiful example of that mission in action. In many village communities, dreams of starting a business or expanding an existing one often remain on hold due to a lack of access to essential tools and machinery. Through our growing network of trusted partners and a deep understanding of local needs, Dots for connects the dots—bringing these vital resources right to where they’re needed most. Whether it is a new sewing machine, a milling tool, or a piece of farming equipment, these items are the beginning of new income streams, a revived sense of purpose, and, most visibly, smiles of hope and joy. We’re proud to be the bridge between aspiration and opportunity. And as more people join our network, the smiles keep multiplying within communities across rural Africa. We celebrate many of the lives touched, businesses started, and futures transformed, one community after another.

Behind every smooth customer experience in rural communities, there’s a dedicated team working tirelessly to ensure that everything runs just right. For us at Dots for, service quality is the result of consistent maintenance, rigorous testing, and deep commitment from our field teams. From solar panels and charging stations to connectivity points and network devices, each component of our infrastructure is cared for with precision. Whether it’s checking power outputs, securing stable installations, or running routine diagnostics, our team members are always in motion. They ensure that communities continue to enjoy reliable, high-performing services—without interruption and from the comfort of their villages. More importantly, this work is done with joy, purpose, and pride. Our team understands the stakes. Every successful service check means that children and adults alike can access educational content on a smartphone. It means local entrepreneurs can start or grow their businesses, invest in better tools, and explore markets far beyond their village. It means more people—young and old, women and men—can tap into new opportunities, stay informed, and stay connected to a broader world. This level of dedication is what powers our mission: removing the barriers that hold rural communities back and unlocking new opportunities across the continent. To our teams on the ground—thank you for keeping every dot connected, every service alive, and every community empowered. 💪🌍

Behind every smooth service, there’s a team making thoughtful choices—often right on the ground. At Dots for, one of our key performance practices in rural areas is the field plenary session. After a day of activity, our teams often come together—sitting down as a unit—to reflect on their Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), discuss challenges, and adjust plans for the next steps. These moments serve to motivate each other and adjust our strategy in real time. From improving how we serve each customer, to finding better ways to respond to a community’s needs, these sessions ensure that nothing is left to chance. This simple but powerful habit helps us stay efficient, agile, and deeply connected to our mission of unlocking opportunities for rural communities. Dots for believes that progress often starts with a group of committed people sharing insights. And our particularity is that we share insights in the field as well. Let’s keep showing up, checking in, and growing together.

It feels like just yesterday that our team had the honor of attending TICAD 9, Japan’s largest international conference focused on African development. It was a powerful and inspiring event that brought together innovators, decision-makers, and visionaries from across the globe all in one place. At our booth, we had the chance to receive distinguished members of Japanese government and other stakeholders and share the work Dots for is doing in rural areas of Benin, Senegal and beyond. What impacted us most was their genuine interest, shared by companies and other organizations, in what we’ve accomplished. Many recognized in our work a true opportunity both for partnership and for meaningful impact. But beyond new collaborations, TICAD 9 reminded us of something even deeper: the value of the work we do every day in rural communities. Sometimes, when you’re in the field—navigating challenges, solving problems, close to the clients—it’s easy to get caught up in the routine of the work and overlook the scale of change we’re making. The praise that we received at TICAD is a testament to the profound transformation we are driving in rural Africa, with impact reaching far beyond, across the world. Being there reaffirmed that what we are building is not just useful—it’s essential. The world is watching, and rural Africa is full of untapped potential. Dots for is making sure to unveil that, and we’re just getting started.
