About Me
Hi, I'm Christian Friday Douglas, popularly known as Chris Douglas. I'm a 23-year-old Nigerian software developer and entrepreneur, and the founder of Salmart Technologies.
My journey in tech started out of a passion to solve real problems around me. For a good while now, I have dedicated my time to learning, building, and experimenting with digital solutions that bring value to people.
In 2024, I began building Salmart, a social e-commerce marketplace designed to make online buying and selling in Nigeria safer, more transparent, and more rewarding for both buyers and sellers.
I believe technology should restore trust in our society, and that's the mission driving my work at Salmart Technologies.
