Morocco-based e-commerce startup Justyol has raised a $1 million funding and financing package to expand its cross-border fashion marketplace connecting Turkish suppliers with MENA consumers.
The deal includes $400,000 in equity from an angel investor and $600,000 in inventory financing from Turkey’s Danis Group. The package was facilitated by advisory firm Nomadic Minds. Justyol, founded in 2022 by Ahmed Badran, Ahmed Rashed, and Anas Ahmed, plans to use the funds to deepen its presence in Morocco, strengthen logistics, and prepare for a Series A round.
The company currently serves over 250,000 active customers and processes more than 30,000 monthly orders, recording 300% year-on-year growth. It partners with AliExpress, Trendyol, and logistics providers including Aramex, Cathides, and Colis Privé, with payments integrated through CMI and Payzone.
Justyol says the financing will support regional expansion beyond Morocco as it aims to become a leading cross-border e-commerce platform in North Africa and the wider Middle East.

Key Takeaways
Justyol’s $1 million raise underscores growing investor interest in North Africa’s fast-growing digital commerce market. Cross-border trade between Turkey and the MENA region is surging, with Turkish fashion exports gaining traction among price-sensitive consumers seeking affordable brands. By combining equity and inventory financing, Justyol has secured not only capital but also operational support to scale supply chains. Its model targets a structural gap: cross-border delivery of Turkish apparel into underserved North African markets, where e-commerce penetration remains below 15%. The startup’s strong metrics—250,000 customers and 30,000 monthly orders—show early demand. Partnerships with global e-commerce players and local logistics firms also strengthen execution capacity. With plans to raise a Series A, Justyol is positioning itself as a bridge between Turkish supply and MENA demand, in a region where online fashion could be worth billions by the end of the decade.
