The supply chain disruptions resulting from the coronavirus crisis led to some nightmare scenarios for small businesses. SMB failures spiked, with some estimates predicting the closure of millions of mom-and-pop shops in the U.S. alone.
Markaaz, the world’s first platform to comprehensively enable small businesses to grow customers, manage suppliers and improve cash flow, today announced a partnership with Equifax, a global data, analytics and technology company.

In the past year, supply chain challenges have been at the forefront of public attention like never before. From the scarcity of essential medical supplies and disinfectant products to toilet paper and rental cars, it seems that everyone has been affected by supply chain shortages to some extent.
A dishonest or disorganized supplier could wreak havoc on your supply chain, undercut profits, and—in extreme cases—even cause your business to fail. Meanwhile, partnering with the right supplier could be the exact puzzle piece your company needs to soar.
Supplier fraud or vendor fraud is a challenge that more and more small businesses face every year. And large corporations aren’t immune to these challenges either. In 2019, both Google and Facebook fell victim to the type of invoice fraud described above—to the tune of $123 million in stolen funds.
Markaaz has partnered with The Aspen Network of Development Entrepreneurs (ANDE). The members of ANDE all share the common goal of helping small and growing business (SGB) owners worldwide break down barriers to success.
Supply chain shortages have always posed a danger to businesses of all sizes. Yet small businesses, in particular, can struggle to avoid supply chain disruptions and adapt when they occur.
When you invest in developing key business collaborations, both your SMB and its suppliers can reap the rewards of your efforts.
