SFH will use Addressya’s digital addressing platform to make it easy for anyone to find their locations, improve internal logistics, as well as plan, monitor, and evaluate their operations. Ultimately, improving customer service and availability.

The registered addresses have been combined into one customized directory and embedded on the SFH website. The addresses combine GPS coordinates, with official address data made available by the government, as well as user-generated information (picture, phone numbers), opening hours and navigation support.

Commenting on the development; Karoline Beronius, the CEO and Co-founder of Addressya said: "We believe in equal access to goods and services, and want to make sure that companies and service providers can reach all citizens and consumers. Together with SFH, we are transforming the way people access essential goods and services.”

Addressya is the digital addressing infrastructure of tomorrow made available today.

The digital addressing infrastructure allows the company to provide tomorrow’s infrastructure today. Addresses only need registering once, can be updated and improved instantly at any time, and are easy to share through unique links, and displayed in the customized directory.

"We are using Addressya to ensure that our communities get easy access to essential health products and services, and strategically plan our locations to bridge any gaps in service delivery,” said Manasseh Wandera, the Executive Director of SFH Rwanda.
