Here’s the scoop on the grand giveaway:
What Is Shangwe @ 25?

25 grand winners: Each will receive KSh 1,000,000 + KSh 250,000 for a community project of their choosing.
For small/micro businesses: 25 businesses will win Bajaj tricycles to boost mobility and trade.
Every week, five small businesses will win stock worth KSh 250,000.
For medium and large enterprises: 15 will each get KSh 500,000 to support community initiatives.
Instant & smaller prizes: Daily and weekly awards include M-PESA cash, data bundles, airtime, mobile devices, 5G routers, and more.
