Who we are
Contract financing, run like infrastructure
TunaKua is a Tanzanian platform that connects small and medium businesses holding verified Local Purchase Orders with investors willing to fund their delivery. The borrower keeps the customer relationship; the investor gets a defined return; the corporate buyer gets a supplier who can actually perform.
Everything that touches money is enforced in the database rather than the browser. Statuses only advance when the right party performs the right action, escrow movements are recorded as double-entry ledger lines, and settlement runs through a single deterministic function.
The platform is operated entirely on infrastructure the business owns, with a full audit trail and live system-health monitoring available to administrators.
Purpose
Unlock the working capital trapped in confirmed purchase orders so Tanzanian SMEs can deliver contracts they already won.
Protection first
Every participant is verified before a shilling moves, and investor capital is held in managed escrow rather than an operating account.
Predictable economics
One fixed distribution order: principal, investor return, platform fee, management fee, then borrower profit. No discretion, no surprises.
Tanzanian by design
Built around BRELA, TRA and NIDA checks, TZS settlement and local corporate buyers, with offices across the country.
Our commitment
What every party can rely on
Borrowers
Financing tied to a real order, with supplier payments made directly so goods actually reach the buyer.
Investors
Verified projects only, capital held in escrow, and a 10% target return paid ahead of any platform fee.
Corporate buyers
Suppliers who can deliver on schedule, with confirmation and invoice payment handled inside one workspace.
