A very warm welcome to the business micro-site of compareprices.mu!
The idea to develop an online multi-retailer showroom birthed a few months ago when I took note of the increasing amount of time that Mauritians spend on the internet on a daily basis and the fact that they are using the new technology as a means to reach various ends. From looking for career opportunities to checking the weather conditions before going to the beach, the internet has become a resource that cannot be ignored. According to the Internet Telecommunication Union, there are about 360,000 internet users in Mauritius (29.69% of the population). It is worth noting that more than 130,000 of them are registered on Facebook, i.e. an impressive 36% of local internet users. The figures certainly suggest that there is a significant percentage of the population that is quite active on the internet, by their presence on social networking sites, blogs, classifieds, etc.
In the light of this observation, there is certainly a considerable portion of the market that can be reached using online resources. The objective behind compareprices.mu is to create a platform where businesses will be able to showcase and market their products to the internet-friendly population. This business micro-site has been designed specifically to provide information on how we can help to market your products on compareprices.mu. It is also the space to watch for news on how compareprices.mu will evolve in the next couple of months.
