+361
Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Tsapo Industries Zambia is a verified, legitimate subsidiary of the Tsapo Group, serving as an authorized distributor for FAW Trucks, Sinotruk, and Lovol construction equipment in the Copperbelt region. While the submission suffers from poor quality (incorrectly stating audience as 'everyone' and confusing revenue with 'marketcap'), external verification confirms a solid B2B operation with verifiable physical presence and hiring activity. The project scores high on real-world utility for the mining/logistics sector but low on technical innovation as it is a traditional dealership. The score reflects a functioning SME comparable in scale to the calibration baseline, heavily adjusted for the lack of proprietary technology.
