At LandandBuy, we believe in creating impactful initiatives that empower our communities while driving innovation. With a focus on the youth, especially those from underprivileged backgrounds, we're thrilled to introduce Game Sales - an initiative dedicated to promoting local boxing talent and opening doors to a brighter future for young Kenyans. Game Sales combines community development with digital marketing to provide unique sponsorship opportunities for Kenyan manufacturers, creating a mutually beneficial platform for social and economic growth.

The Vision Behind Game Sales

Kenya is home to an impressive pool of young boxing talent, especially among the youth in our ghettos. However, a lack of financial support, sponsorship, and access to professional training means many of these promising young athletes are unable to reach their full potential. Left without guidance, some may end up on unproductive paths, faced with the realities of drugs and crime.

Game Sales seeks to change that narrative. By organizing and sponsoring boxing tournaments and events across the country, LandandBuy aims to provide young Kenyan boxers with the support they need to showcase their talent and receive recognition for their hard work. This initiative gives young athletes a safe space to develop, grow, and compete professionally, instilling discipline and hope for a promising future.

How Game Sales Works

The Game Sales model is an innovative approach that bridges eCommerce, sports sponsorship, and digital marketing. Here's how it works:

  1. Collaborative Sponsorship: LandandBuy partners with Kenyan manufacturers, particularly in the building materials sector, and media houses to sponsor boxing events. A manufacturer, for example, a tile producer, can donate products to LandandBuy's eCommerce store instead of monetary sponsorship.

  2. Product Sales for Funding: LandandBuy then sells these products on our platform, with all proceeds going directly towards organizing the boxing events. The funds are used to cover essential costs such as hiring medical personnel, judges, referees, and paying for prize money and event logistics.

  3. Mutual Benefits for Manufacturers: Manufacturers supporting Game Sales receive unique marketing and branding opportunities. Through their partnership with LandandBuy, these companies promote their products on our digital platform, gaining valuable exposure among online shoppers. They also showcase their commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), demonstrating a shared dedication to uplifting Kenyan youth.

Why Game Sales Matters

Game Sales represents more than just an eCommerce venture - it's a commitment to the potential of Kenya's young athletes and an innovative way to give back. Here's how it makes an impact:

  • Empowering Youth and Reducing Crime: By providing these young boxers with opportunities, mentorship, and professional competition, Game Sales offers a productive alternative to the temptations of drugs and crime. This initiative encourages discipline, self-worth, and the possibility of a professional sports career.

  • Showcasing Local Talent on a National Stage: Boxing tournaments allow young boxers to compete on a national stage and gain recognition, boosting their confidence and showcasing their skills. Media partnerships further amplify this visibility, bringing local talent into the spotlight.

  • Promoting Digital Marketing and Product Awareness: For manufacturers, Game Sales serves as a digital marketing channel that combines social impact with brand promotion. Companies benefit from exposure both on the LandandBuy platform and during the events, reaching a broader audience while showcasing their CSR initiatives.

  • Building Loyal Customer Relationships: By engaging in socially responsible initiatives, LandandBuy strengthens customer loyalty and trust. Consumers are increasingly attracted to brands that are making a difference, and Game Sales allows us to align our commercial goals with positive social change.

Join Us in Supporting Local Talent

Through Game Sales, LandandBuy invites Kenyan manufacturers, suppliers, and media houses to join hands in building a brighter future for Kenya's youth. Together, we can create a supportive environment where young boxers thrive and communities are uplifted. Our commitment to this initiative stems from a desire to innovate and transform lives, proving that eCommerce can be a powerful tool for social impact.

At LandandBuy, we're excited to be part of this journey. We look forward to a future where our youth can pursue their passions and achieve greatness - one boxing match at a time.
