The Wonderland | Salla E-Commerce Platform

In the dynamic digital market where e-commerce behemoths like Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento predominate, the Middle East and North Africa continue to experience a significant void. Amid the global proliferation of virtual marketplaces, The Arab world needed a link customized to its own needs, a bespoke experience, and seamless adaptation. The year 2016 marked the commencement of a visionary quest by Nawaf Hariri and Salman Butt, who set out to bridge this gap, birthing the revolutionary Salla E-Commerce Platform. As they embraced innovation, they set out on a mission to create an online shopping haven where Arab entrepreneurs could prosper by fusing technology and culture.

With its headquarters in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, Salla is considered to be the foremost e-commerce platform in the country. Aspiring entrepreneurs are given the tools they need to launch, run, and expand their own small business by providing them with the full assistance and cutting-edge tools essential for major success in a variety of sectors.

The platform's reliability and credibility swiftly resonated within the MENA (Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia) community, leading Raed Ventures, Vision Ventures, Inspire Ventures, and DIC to invest around $8.5 Million in Salla's inaugural seed funding.
