Who We Are

Your Partner in Field Sales and Route to Market Solutions

ConnectGroup is a South African-based software company established in 2013. We specialise in building easy-to-use Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) platforms, particularly field sales software and route to market solutions, that are relevant to the unique nature of the South African and African retail and general trade markets.

Our Vision

Cloud-Based SaaS Solutions for Modern and General Trade

The ConnectGroup is focused on offering manufacturers and distributors in Africa cloud-based SaaS solutions. Our modular clip-ons provide the flexibility to build custom and white-labelled trade technology solutions. We facilitate transparent data capturing in both formal and traditional trade sectors. Our field sales management solutions and retail execution software accommodate the entire value chain from manufacturing to last-mile distribution.

 

  • We have partnered with ConnectGroup for the past 5 years, and aside from the challenges of doing business amidst a Covid pandemic, we have been amazed at the bespoke turnkey results they have prepared that address our unique challenges of providing a technological solution within the informal FMCG channel in South Africa. There is no doubt that our business offering to our partners and the service we deliver to our customers has improved exponentially as a result of our relationship with ConnectGroup and the technological solutions that have evolved.   We sincerely appreciate your efficient, gracious customer service; the level of detail and accountability they have demonstrated on each project, and the way they conduct business as a whole.   Our team could not be more satisfied with your work, and we look forward to continuing this relationship in the future.

  • Nestlé has been using the ConnectFMCG platform for 8 years now, and it has changed the way we understand our sales teams’ performance and promotional execution across all our channels. ConnectFMCG has allowed us to access key real-time data that deals with our branding efforts, planogram compliance and ranging at store level. It has been fantastic to work with the ConnectGroup team who have been enthusiastic partners throughout our working relationship. Nothing is an effort to them and their response and turnaround time on queries or changes to our requirements has always been above expectations.

  • I have been blown away by the impact that ConnectINCENTIVES, from ConnectGroup, has had on my business. The RCLgo gamified incentives platform has enabled third-party reps to drive sales with a level of engagement and motivation that I have never seen before. The platform is incredibly intuitive and easy to use, with a sleek and modern design that really engages and motivates users through the central leaderboard. The incentives and rewards system is highly effective, with a wide range of options that really appeal to our reps and drive them to achieve more. What I love most about ConnectINCENTIVES is the level of support and guidance that the ConnectGroup team provides. Jane and Warren are always available to answer questions and provide advice, and their expertise and insight have been invaluable in helping us to optimise our sales strategy and drive growth. Overall, I can't recommend ConnectINCENTIVES and the ConnectGroup team highly enough. If you're looking for a powerful and effective way to drive sales and motivate your reps, then look no further than ConnectINCENTIVES!

  • ConnectFMCG has tremendously improved the way we work in that our field staff are more effective and efficient in the trade. Our back office staff has a broader visibility of all activities, ranging from check-ins at store level to information required via surveys. The one element that sets The connect Team apart from the rest is that they are able to customise the tool to their clients specific needs. This has served our company well as Coast and Country sales would like to maintain our competitive edge in providing a high quality service to ourcustomers. Their after sales support is commendable, as The Connect Team is available to address any queries and their response time in terms of fixing errors is impressive. Warren and Jane are knowledgeable, friendly and are responsive to our requirements. We are happy to recommend the services of The Connect Team.
