Sponsorship & Partnerships

Back the businesses
building Zimbabwe

Shop263 reaches the engine room of the economy β€” small businesses, traders, and the shoppers who support them. Partner with us to grow your brand while growing local commerce.

Why partner with us

Reach an audience money can't easily buy

Our community isn't passive scrollers β€” it's business owners making purchasing decisions and shoppers actively looking to spend. Your brand meets them at the moment of commerce.

SME Decision-Makers

Every seller on the platform is a business owner β€” the exact audience banks, insurers, telecoms, and suppliers want to reach.

Active Shoppers

Marketplace visitors arrive with intent to buy. Sponsored placement puts your brand inside the shopping journey, not beside it.

Goodwill That Sticks

Supporting local business is a story Zimbabweans rally behind. Partners are visibly part of that story β€” not just an ad slot.

Nationwide Footprint

Sellers and shoppers from Harare to Bulawayo, Mutare to Gweru β€” including diaspora buyers shopping for family back home.

Multi-Channel Visibility

On-platform placements plus our social media, WhatsApp community, seller newsletters, and events.

Measurable Results

Transparent reporting on impressions, clicks, and engagement β€” so you always know what your partnership delivers.
