Our Marketplace

Digital Platform for the Azores

Soeng Solutions is developing an innovative marketplace focused on the Azores, enabling direct connections between consumers and local merchants. The system will have two dimensions: B2B (between businesses) and B2C (between businesses and consumers), promoting a circular economy and reducing dependence on external platforms.

Key Features

• User registration with distinct profiles for buyers and sellers
• Customized storefronts for sellers with branding, promotions, and analytics
• Integrated payments with SIBS (MB WAY, Multibanco reference, card, etc.)
• Stock management, marketing campaigns, and sales analysis powered by AI
• Personalized recommendations, wishlists, comparison tool, and loyalty system
• Gamification to boost community engagement
• Integration with social networks and local logistics partners
• Cloud‑ready, scalable platform built with microservices

Impact on the Azorean Economy

Our marketplace will energize local commerce, facilitate the digital transformation of small businesses, and promote regional products, contributing to sustainable economic development in the Azores. With a no‑subscription entry model based solely on sales commissions, we ensure fair and inclusive access for all regional merchants.

Through partnerships with public entities and local logistics providers, we also aim to reduce carbon footprint and shorten distribution chains. AI integration will enable Azorean businesses to compete in a modern digital market with data‑driven insights for more efficient decision‑making.
