About Palm

From a rural telecom start-up to a diversified Tanzanian company

We identify gaps in the market and turn them into practical, reliable solutions for communities, businesses and institutions.

Our story

It started with a long walk to buy airtime

Palm General Supply Co. Limited was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Dar es Salaam. Our founder noticed that communities in rural Morogoro and Kigoma had to travel long distances for basic mobile and payment services.

We started by bringing those services closer: distributing telecommunications vouchers, offering mobile money, and selling phones and accessories. It was a sustainable business built on a real community need.

As the company matured we expanded into the sectors where we could add the same kind of value. Our two directors brought complementary experience in trading, management, customer relationships and market development, and that combination has driven our growth since.
