The delivery associates use vans and mini vans. They are paid based on deliveries done in a month

Yes. We partner with logistics companies and independent van drivers but we influence the KPIs and compensations of the delivery associates

We limit delivery to mom and pop stores within 1 hour reach from a warehouse within the city. All orders during a day are assigned to delivery associates that load the next morning and deliver to several stores based on proximity. Our business operations are local to enable next day delivery. As we expand, we will open up to manufacturers in countries outside Africa to launch their products into Africa using Suplias.
