At 1Bena, innovation is at the heart of everything we do. For me, true innovation isn’t just about technology—it’s about making life better for every customer, every partner, and every community we serve.
From the very beginning, I envisioned 1Bena as a platform to connect people, empower local businesses, and create opportunities across The Gambia. Our journey has always been about more than just delivering products; it’s about delivering value, trust, and positive change.
Every decision we make is guided by our commitment to serve. Whether it’s improving our app, expanding our delivery network, or supporting our partners, I strive to ensure that 1Bena makes a real difference in people’s lives. My leadership is inspired by the community we serve, pushing us to keep breaking boundaries, listening to what Gambian people need, and innovating with purpose.
But our vision does not stop at the borders of The Gambia. As CEO, I see a future where Africa stands united—where our nations collaborate, share knowledge, and build digital bridges that connect us to each other and to the world. The dream of a united Africa is not just a political idea; it is an economic necessity. For too long, Africa’s immense talent, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit have been underrepresented in the global economy.
At 1Bena, we are committed to changing that. We believe that by building strong, tech-driven platforms, we can help African businesses reach new markets, empower young entrepreneurs, and create jobs that uplift entire communities. Our mission is to ensure that Africa gets its fair share of the global digital economy—by making it easier for people to buy, sell, and connect across borders.
We are investing in technology, logistics, and partnerships that will allow us to scale beyond The Gambia. Our goal is to create a seamless experience for customers and businesses, whether they are in Banjul, Lagos, Nairobi, or beyond. By working together, sharing resources, and supporting one another, we can unlock Africa’s true potential.
The future I envision for 1Bena—and for Africa—is one where we are not just consumers of global technology, but creators and leaders. I want to see African startups competing on the world stage, African products reaching global markets, and African voices shaping the future of commerce.
This is more than a business goal; it is a movement. When we uplift our customers and partners, we uplift our entire continent. That’s the power of innovation with a human touch, and that’s the future we are building at 1Bena.
Join us on this journey. Experience the difference. Experience 1Bena.
— Sulayman Njie, CEO, 1Bena
