You're In Business

The project represents a verified, funded startup in Rwanda ('Foodline') focused on agricultural distribution and food security, founded in 2020. However, the submission quality is critically low. There is a significant disconnect between the claimed global reach ('everyone') and the reality of a local logistics operation. The claim 'most people have used my product' is verifiable hyperbole and lacks any supporting metrics. Additionally, the business type listed ('listing platform for caterers') conflicts with the provided description and external evidence of it being an agri-supply chain company, suggesting a confused or low-effort submission. While the underlying business has real-world utility, the submission fails to demonstrate it effectively.
