One platform

Four tools that work together

Find a business, ask several for a price, pick the best offer and win new customers of your own. You never have to leave EABD to do it.

AI business database

Ask in plain words. Get businesses that fit.

Type what you need the way you would say it to a friend, like “lawyers in Kiambu” or “solar installers in Mombasa”. EABD’s AI works out the service and the place, then shows matching businesses with their ratings, badges and contact details.

  • 148,616 businesses in Burundi, DR Congo, Kenya, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania, and Uganda.
  • A verified badge means EABD has checked the registration, address and contact details.
  • Call, WhatsApp, email or message the business yourself. There is no middleman and no markup.

Private sourcing

Send one request. Let suppliers come to you.

Tell EABD what you want to buy, whether it is 24 CCTV cameras, weekly office cleaning or a complete office refit. Your request goes to paid suppliers who sell exactly that in the places you choose. They see your industry and town, never your name, so you get honest prices without the sales calls.

  • One request reaches every matching supplier, and you see how many match before you pay.
  • Your business stays anonymous until you decide to share your details with one supplier.
  • A request costs KES 1,000. If nobody quotes, the fee comes back to you as sourcing credit.

Request quotes How sourcing works

Quote analysis

Compare quotes without a spreadsheet.

Quotes arrive in one place, priced line by line, with totals in Kenya shillings and VAT shown. EABD lines them up side by side, points out prices that look too high or too low, and shows each supplier’s rating, lead time and warranty. When you are ready, message the supplier you like and select their quote.

  • Compare up to four quotes at once, line by line.
  • See the lowest, typical and highest price for every item you asked for.
  • Quotes are ordered by value and trust. What a supplier pays EABD never moves them up.

Email outreach

Reach the businesses that need what you sell.

Write a campaign once and send it to businesses on EABD in the industry you serve. Your business appears as the sender and replies come back to your EABD inbox. Every email carries an unsubscribe link that works in one click, so your message arrives properly and stays welcome.

  • Included with the Premium plan.
  • Follow recipients, deliveries and replies for every campaign.
  • Unsubscribes are honoured automatically, so you never email someone who said no.
