Abstract
Telecommunication, specifically mobile phones, can solve the existing information asymmetry in the market sector. Sometimes, a major challenge consumers face is where and when to buy a particular product, be it consumable or non-consumable. This paper presents the application of Software Development techniques to make useful, accurate, and reliable information about markets available to people. “Mobile Market Intelligence System” is a system that brings information about markets in the Ede Federal constituency to the users` doorstep. On touch, the user can access the markets in this constituency, the day of a market, common product available in such a market, and the distance from the user`s location to the market. The location of the market is enhanced by the use of GPS (Global Positioning System). The system was developed using Javascripts, android studio, and mysql. The proposed system was evaluated based on the users` assessment to determine the system`s efficiency in terms of ease of usage, reliability, and relevance of the system. Likert-Scale Responses (LSR) were used to evaluate the strength and acceptability of the system.
