Mache Ayisyen: An Initiative by Phanord Cabé to Boost Haitian National Production

Local trade in Haiti, while rich in diversity and potential, faces numerous challenges, including the low visibility of local producers and the lack of adequate infrastructure for marketing their products. This includes the massive influx of products from foreign countries, which unfairly overwhelms the small Haitian market with very poor-quality products. It is in this context that Phanord Cabé, CEO of the online media Hebdo24, unveiled his ambitious project, "Mache Ayisyen." It is a digital platform dedicated to the promotion and sale of local Haitian products.

Scheduled for launch in April 2025, Mache Ayisyen aims to connect Haitian producers and consumers through an online platform. The objective is clear: to encourage the consumption of local products while providing much-needed visibility to the country’s small businesses. By focusing on the growth of local commerce, this initiative could be a catalyst for boosting the Haitian economy.

A Thoughtful Action

According to Phanord Cabé, the idea for this platform emerged from a simple but significant observation: although Haitian producers offer quality products, they often face a lack of visibility. On the other hand, many Haitian consumers want to support the local economy but are faced with the lack of suitable solutions for purchasing local products online. Mache Ayisyen positions itself as the ideal solution to bridge this gap by offering a digital showcase where 100% Haitian products will be easily accessible to a wider audience.

The platform will be a true e-commerce center where users can buy and sell local products, ranging from food to handicrafts. One of the project’s strengths will be its delivery system, which will facilitate transactions between sellers and consumers. Additionally, Mache Ayisyen will offer flexible payment options, allowing users to pay in gourdes or US dollars, depending on their preferences.

Coming Soon

The project is currently in full development. Phanord Cabé assured that his technical team is working hard to make the platform operational by April 27, 2025. In addition to the website (www.macheayisyen.com), a mobile application will also be available, providing easier access for users. This development demonstrates the team’s commitment to making the platform accessible to a wide audience while adapting to Haitians’ new digital habits.

Launched by Phanord Cabé, Mache Ayisyen is a collaborative project. The CEO emphasizes that several partners are contributing to the project, providing their expertise in economic, technical, and marketing fields. This collaboration demonstrates the team’s determination to create a solid and sustainable platform capable of meeting the needs of the Haitian market.

More than an economic project

Beyond its economic objectives, Mache Ayisyen reflects the vision of its initiator: for a Haïti that values ​​its local talents and resources. Phanord Cabé expressed a message of hope for young Haitian entrepreneurs, emphasizing that the country possesses enormous potential that must be harnessed with the right tools.

Indeed, this announcement comes at the right time. Exactly when the Haitian economy is being hit hard by the prevailing insecurity in the Haitian capital. This is yet another testament to the country’s resilience, and shows that in the midst of difficult times, inventive Haitian minds continue to propose appropriate solutions to improve the situation on the ground, even beyond the challenges. Through his many initiatives, Phanord Cabé is a worthy representative of the creative capacity of Haitians. With the arrival of Mache Ayisyen, local production stakeholders will have a platform that is entirely at their disposal. Because this initiative is not just an economic project; it is also an initiative to promote local entrepreneurship and support a more resilient and modern Haitian economy. Its launch next April could mark a decisive turning point for local commerce and offer a new path for the country’s economic future.
