Frequently Asked Questions

Gizye is a B2B marketplace that connects verified Ethiopian exporters with international buyers. Buyers discover suppliers and send sourcing inquiries; exporters manage a verified profile and respond to buyers directly.

Company profiles are built from Ethiopia's official trade registry. Businesses that join must prove they control the listing through identity and phone verification, and many are reviewed by our team. Trust badges and valid-license status on a profile reflect that evidence.

Browsing exporters, viewing profiles, and sending inquiries are free for buyers. Exporters can claim and manage their public profile at no cost.

Open the exporter's profile and use the inquiry form to send a sourcing request. Your message opens a private conversation with the seller inside Gizye.
