Why CIS
Don't buy building materials from anonymous online ads. Buy from verified suppliers.
General marketplaces list thousands of building-materials ads from mostly unverified sellers. E&M CIS Connect lists verified suppliers, a live price index, and a price-match guarantee — so you never overpay or get scammed.
Verified, not anonymous
Every supplier is checked by E&M before listing — real business, real stock, real contacts.
Live price index
Weekly price trends on cement, steel, roofing and paint so you know fair pricing before you buy.
Diaspora-ready
Built for Ugandans abroad building back home — quotations, supply and delivery coordinated for you.
Price-match guarantee
Found the same material cheaper elsewhere? We'll match or beat the verified in-stock price.
