Pasar OK OCE specifically designed to support OK OCE member which are MSMEs in accessing raw materials for their businesses. The adoption of the Pasar OK OCE app has brought about a multitude of benefits for the organization, including:
- Reduced operational costs: Flat shipping rates have significantly lowered the financial burden on MSMEs.
- Enhanced productivity and time savings: By streamlining the procurement of raw materials, business owners can focus their energy on sales and growth.
- Increased revenue: Competitive raw material prices and flat shipping rates have contributed to lower overall expenses, boosting profit margins for MSMEs, particularly micro-businesses.
- Improved financial management and sales efficiency: The app has simplified financial record-keeping and streamlined the sales process, empowering MSMEs to make informed business decisions.
Beyond these benefits, Pasar OK OCE has also facilitated access to quality and affordable basic necessities for OK OCE MSME members. By connecting MSMEs within the OK OCE network to partner wholesalers on the Pasar OK OCE app, the organization has ensured a consistent supply of essential goods at competitive prices.
“Pasar OK OCE has been a game-changer for OK OCE MSMEs,” remarked Kevin Arthadia Aqqila, Cooperation Executive Staff OK OCE Indonesia. “The app has not only reduced costs and improved efficiency but has also empowered our members to focus on their core competencies – growing their businesses and creating jobs.”
