Inventa is a platform that facilitates the whole process of purchase, selection and discharge of new products, credit, logistics and service for shopkeepers. With the help of Inventa's proprietary technology, which works as a B2B wholesale marketplace, small and medium-sized retailers and entrepreneurs can replenish their product inventories by purchasing wholesale items. The Brazilian startup was born with the purpose of leveling the playing field for these smaller retailers and helping them compete with the delivery giants that currently capture a large part of the market. By also providing data to help make decisions, Inventa helps these businesses integrate a digital model into their operations.
