Over the past five years, Manbang has developed an intelligent logistics ecosystem that integrates users, transactions, self-operation, the automotive aftermarket, finance, logistics real estate, energy, intelligent driving, and international businesses.

Diana Forson, senior editor of the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation, said that Ghana should try to emulate Manbang's success in applying big data.
