MAPS A-to-Z Guide
Everything you need to know about the Market Access Programme — for clients and our internal team.
MAPS (Market Access Programme Service) is Spaza Global's structured trade expedition programme. It connects international buyers — hotels, resorts, corporate purchasers, and retailers — directly with verified Southern African producers through curated, on-the-ground sourcing journeys.
Unlike trade shows or online catalogues, MAPS takes you into the supply chain: visiting factories, meeting artisans, tasting products at source, and building direct relationships with the people behind the products.
For clients: Think of it as a premium buying trip — part sourcing mission, part cultural immersion, fully managed by our team.
Internally: MAPS is our flagship revenue product. Each expedition generates supplier onboarding, product orders, and long-term procurement relationships.
