Moroccan startup Woliz has raised 2.2 million dollars in pre-seed funding to digitize traditional neighborhood shops using AI and IoT. Led by Sanlam Maroc, the platform aims to equip 20,000 nanostores with connected terminals and reach 90,000 merchants nationwide. By tracking sales and inventory, Woliz creates a transparent data layer that enables financial inclusion and supply chain efficiency for the informal sector. This infrastructure bridges the gap between traditional commerce and formal banking ecosystems through real-time analytics. ๐ฒ๐ฆ
