TXT Europe to launch Casual Work Market

TXT Europe, the European operation of TXT Group; a Leading Mobile and Internet Services Provider is set to launch the group’s flagship product Casual Work Market in the European market.

TXT Group began operations in Ghana as TXT Ghana in 2003 and quickly expanded to cover key countries across the continent as well as making a bold entry into the European market in September 2010.
Casual Work Market as explained is a social commerce platform that facilitates the seamless listing, discovery and engagement of people looking to give or offering to do small jobs and services.

Simply put it acts as a digital notice-board for the listing of job offers and facilitates discovery of jobs within varying work types from putting up shelving, fixing a leak in the shower, to doing domestic work such as baby sitting, pet-walking, cleaning or cooking. The platform allows people to effortlessly search for job seekers based on their unique need and criterion.

Users of the platform listing job offers and opportunities or seeking offers and opportunities will be able to rate and provide feedback for the benefit of other users so as to ensure both competitive pricing and allowing job finders/workers to build up a trusted and respected brand for themselves on the platform. Payments are processed transparently with both parties protected under Casual Work Market’s guarantee which ensures that jobs are paid for after the job is completed satisfactorily.

Nii Laryea, CEO of TXT Group sai “The mobile internet has empowered our generation to do things differently, creating waves of change and positive disruptions across all industries and it’s that same thinking that has been applied to the problem of unemployment or under-employment and matching causal or professional abilities to one time small job offers and identifiable opportunities.”
To better manage the scaling of resources and support required for a worldwide launch, TXT EUROPE in line with its Group’s vision and objectives will initially make the service available in The Netherlands and then in Germany, The United Kingdom, Ghana, South Africa, Kenya and Nigeria before an eventual world-wide roll out.

In ensuring that the platform becomes the preferred destination for micro-entrepreneurs, opportunity seekers and givers alike; Nii Laryea confirms that TXT Group has taken steps to establish strategic partnerships and relationships with the security, social welfare and social security agencies of all countries as well as key cultural organizations, such as community groups, its leadership and religious groups and bodies. This is to ensure the safety of all parties and to further and more importantly ensure that Casual Work Market plays a key role within these communities and in job creation.

The TXT Group comprises of TXT Africa, TXT Ghana, TXT Africa -Nigeria and TXT Europe and styles itself as “A Mobile Media Network that cultivates an audience base which they continually engage, educate, entertain and inform by offering a combination of FREE and PAY PER USE mobile and internet based services and applications.
