The company has two main objectives: improving the traditional warung using technology and inviting companies to use the platform to distribute their products and services.

Warung Pintar CEO Agung Bezharie said the company saw the startup as a technology hub that can connect various opportunities for their partners.

“Therefore, we welcome anyone who wants to be Warung Pintar’s partner, from both technology or non-technology companies,” said Agung. (jes/kes)
