TD Africa TD Africa

We Didn't Set Out to Build Software. We Set Out to Solve Problems.

TD Africa has spent decades as Sub-Saharan Africa's largest technology distributor, moving hardware and software across 47 countries in partnership with 30+ of the world's leading OEM brands. That scale created a problem most companies never have to solve: how do you run sales, service, payroll, supply chain, and infrastructure across dozens of markets, currencies, and business units, without losing visibility or control?

Our Story

We couldn't find software that solved it the way we needed, so we built our own. Every platform in this portfolio started the same way: a real operational gap inside TD Africa, a practical solution built to close it, and months of daily use across our own business before we ever considered offering it more broadly.

That has led us to two different ways of putting this software into the world, and we're deliberate about which is which.

Some of what we've built is genuinely commercial software: sturdy, proven products like Vantage, Kola, ChainView, PaySync, Orbit, and Africore, ready for other businesses to buy and run their own operations on.

The rest was never built to be sold. Platforms like SuperApp, Founders Franchise, Relay, Codex, and Nexus exist to make our ecosystem stronger, giving our partners, resellers, and the young entrepreneurs we champion the tools to grow alongside us, at no cost to them. And Aricha isn't a platform at all. She's the voice we've built to tell Africa's technology story honestly.

We are TD Africa: a distribution company that became a software company because the problems needed solving, some of it for profit, much of it for the ecosystem we all depend on.

Software We Offer

Commercial products, built for other businesses to buy, deploy, and run their operations on.

Vantage

Sales Pipeline & Quote Management

Vantage gives sales teams one system of record for every quote, from first draft to signed order to invoice. Built for businesses that sell across multiple teams, currencies, or business units, Vantage replaces the spreadsheets and side-channels that quietly cost deals, with one live pipeline everyone can see and trust, reporting in both USD and local currency, and role-based access that keeps the right information in front of the right people. If your sales process outgrew your visibility, Vantage brings the two back together.

Kola

ERP Built For Growing Businesses

Most small and mid-sized businesses outgrow spreadsheets long before they can justify the cost of a full enterprise system. Kola closes that gap: a straightforward ERP covering purchase orders, accounting, and ageing analytics, built for businesses that need real financial control without enterprise complexity or enterprise pricing. It's the ERP we use to keep our own partner network running, now available for any growing business to run on.

ChainView

Total Visibility, From Port To Door

ChainView tracks every order across your supply chain, from purchase order to customs clearance to warehouse receipt to final delivery, giving you one live view instead of a dozen disconnected updates. Built for businesses moving product across borders and multiple brands, it surfaces container and shipment-level detail alongside landed cost, so you always know where your inventory is and what it's actually costing you to get there.

PaySync

A Fully Built Payroll Platform

PaySync is a fully built payroll platform for businesses running payroll across multiple entities, countries, or currencies. It handles payslips, audit trail, and multi-user approval, then formats every journal for direct import into your finance system, so payroll stops being a manual reconciliation exercise at the end of every month. For finance teams who need payroll to be accurate, auditable, and fast, PaySync removes the manual handoff between β€œpayroll ran” and β€œthe books are right.”

Orbit

Enterprise Networking, Without The Capital Outlay

Orbit gives businesses managed network infrastructure as a service, powered by Huawei's iMaster NCE, so you get zero-touch deployment, AI-powered monitoring, and unified control across campus, SD-WAN, and multi-vendor devices, without buying controller hardware or carrying the CAPEX. Whether you're running ten sites or ten thousand devices, Orbit scales with you, and you only pay for the network you're actually using.

Africore

A Home For Your Infrastructure

Africore offers secure, managed hosting for the systems your business depends on, built on the same infrastructure backbone that runs Orbit's managed network services. For businesses that want enterprise-grade hosting without building and maintaining their own data centre, Africore provides the reliability of dedicated infrastructure with the flexibility of a managed service, consolidating your hosting needs under one trusted roof.

Platforms Built to Power Our Ecosystem

Not sold. Built to be embraced, onboarded, and used, because a stronger network around TD Africa is a win for everyone in it.

SuperApp

Our Digital B2B Platform For A Growing Partner Network

SuperApp is TD Africa's digital B2B platform, built for the resellers and small businesses that make up our growing partner ecosystem. It puts our full product catalogue and pricing directly in their hands, removing the friction and phone calls that used to slow B2B buying down. This isn't a product we sell, it's the platform we've built so our partners can buy better, move faster, and grow with us. If you're part of our network, SuperApp is already built for you to onboard onto.

Founders Franchise

Empowering The Next Generation Of African Entrepreneurs

Founders Franchise is TD Africa's commitment to putting real business ownership within reach, starting with young graduates who have the drive to run a business but not always the capital or the process to start one. From day one, TD Africa stands behind them: registering the business, and giving them a fully functioning ecommerce storefront, built on TD Africa's SuperApp, without the cost and complexity that would normally come with setting one up.

This is not a product for sale. It's a platform we're inviting Africa's young talent to embrace, be onboarded onto, and build a real, CAC-registered business on top of, powered by TD Africa from the very first day. Founders Franchise is how we turn ambition into ownership.

Relay

Access To TD Africa's Full Catalogue, Without The Cost Of Stocking It

Relay is the middleware that gives any ecommerce platform access to TD Africa's extensive range of products and services, live, without ever needing to buy the inventory, build the warehousing, or carry the infrastructure that comes with stocking it themselves. It pulls product images, descriptions, quantities, and prices directly from our systems and makes that catalogue available to any partner platform that plugs in.

For ecommerce businesses, this means the reach of TD Africa's full portfolio without the capital risk of ownership. Relay is how we extend our shelf to partners, not by selling it to them, but by opening it up.

Codex

Making Software Licensing Simple For Our Partners

Codex is a TD Africa digital platform built to make provisioning software licences as convenient as possible for our partners. Rather than a manual, back-and-forth request process, Codex lets partners provision licences they need directly and instantly, drawing on live licensing data to keep every request accurate.

This is a service we provide to strengthen how our partners do business with us, not a software product on sale. It's part of how we make working with TD Africa easier.

Nexus

After-Sales Support, As A Value We Add

Nexus connects OEMs, service engineers, spare parts, and customers inside one platform, so after-sales support runs on a system rather than a scramble of phone calls and spreadsheets. It tracks every service job from request through parts allocation, SLA compliance, and resolution.

Nexus isn't something we sell separately, it's a value we add to every partner and customer relationship after the sale is made. It's how TD Africa makes good on the promise that support doesn't end at delivery.

Our Digital Voice

Aricha

Africa's Digital Voice Of Truth

Aricha is TD Africa's own AI influencer, built to be Africa's digital voice of truth on technology. She isn't a platform to onboard or a product to buy, she's a brand experience: an always-on, independent voice carrying real stories about technology, trends, and the businesses shaping Africa's digital future to audiences that a traditional marketing team could never reach alone. Aricha represents what TD Africa believes about technology in Africa, told honestly, and told everywhere.
