Ishtero.com is a one-stop shop that helps businesses expand their online retail operation. Ishtero.com is a unique virtual marketplace that we believe will revolutionize e-commerce in Egypt and the wider region.

Ishtero.com provides its partner stores with an exclusive opportunity to have their own unique website while still being part of a much wider network of potential shoppers. Ishtero.com has been designed to act like a virtual market place; a one stop shop to cater for all the needs of online shoppers. Each partner store on the network will have its very own unique website and domain name with its own product catalog. Ishtero.com will have a product catalog consisting of a collection of all products in the product catalogs of all partner sites. The shopping cart for each unique shopper will be interlinked between the individual partner websites and the larger ishtero.com network through Ishtero.com’s groundbreaking Universal Shopping Cart technology, while the Universal Login feature will allow shoppers to login to all partner websites using the same login credentials.

Internet usage in the Middle East is growing at a very fast rate; this along with a rise in credit card issuance numbers and an expanding sophisticated Internet user base creates a very appealing opportunity for all retailers. Ishtero.com services will enable retailers to leverage this growing wave to achieve additional selling channels that would not have been previously available, while also creating a strong bond between the shoppers and the brands that they are purchasing. We believe that the digital world is becoming one of the major communication medians in the region and Ishtero.com is primed to become the premier shopping destination for the region. Join the Ishtero.com family now and make an impactful digital footprint.

Partner Stores: Because of the existing structure of the ishtero.com network, new partner stores will benefit from an ability to develop individualized websites at unprecedented speeds with the quality level that will be expected from Ishtero.com while maintaining very competitive prices. Partners will also gain exposure to a much larger local, regional and international shopper base through the ishtero.com network as well as through other partnerships with reputable international institutions.

Shoppers: For those looking for a more specialized shopping experience, the individual and unique website for each partner will enable customers to carry out transactions just as they would on the ishtero.com network. For those looking for a larger shopping experience, the immense product catalog in Ishtero.com will provide customers with a large number of products to choose from. The more members and partner stores that join the network the more attractive it will be for everyone within the network, both shoppers and partner stores.

Large clients with bigger financial resources may opt to pay a one-time charge for the development of their unique site as well as entrance into the network. Smaller clients with limited resources may opt to pay a much smaller one-time charge to cover the cost of the site development, and then pay a commission for every transaction that occurs online.

Our technical goal is to provide the means for any company that already has a developed idea and product, to sell its products online within a two to four week timeframe.

Our long term business goal is to be the top and most widely visited online shopping destination in Egypt in the Middle East with a competitive marketplace that will provide the best value for the customer, which in turn encourages business for the client.

Our long term societal goal is to help current small businesses streamline their business processes, reduce costs, and offer them visibility to a bigger virtual marketplace, and to help new businesses more easily and cost effectively start an efficient online retail operation. To help us achieve this long term goal we will be forming strong partnerships with other firms with a similar vision in the following fields:

• Legal partnership for startup help.
• Financial partnership for certified legal accounting help.
• Venture Capital partnership for funding help.
• Bank partnership for easy account and payroll integration.
• Educational partnership for leadership and business courses.
• Consultancy partnership for idea and business development.
• Design partnership for corporate identity.

We are planning on completing Ishtero.com by during the year 2010. Extra advanced features will continually be rolled out throughout 2010 and 2011. We plan to start implementing our long term societal plans by the second quarter of 2011.

We strongly believe that a network is only as strong as its weakest link, and at ishtero.com quality and attention to detail have been, and always will be a cornerstone for our network.
