Logistics startups continue to thrive in Africa: Kenya's Sendy raises $2 million from Goodwell Investments for growth.
Kenyan on-demand deliveries startup Sendy has raised US$2 million in funding from Goodwell Investments to help it expand further across East Africa.
Launched in 2014, Sendy offers a marketplace for last-mile package delivery and logistics services, allowing customers to send packages and documents using a mobile application that connects them to motorcycle riders, and drivers of vans and pickup trucks.
The startup is currently active in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, but plans to cover all East Africa in the near future. This expansion will now be sped up thanks to the US$2 million secured from Goodwell, an Amsterdam-based impact investment firm that has previously backed the likes of Copia, Max.ng, Nomanini and Inclusivity Solutions.
