Mondo Ride, one of Africa’s leading ride hailing business began operations in three new cities in Africa in February this year as part of its expansion across the continent.
Today, over one million people in Kisumu, 5.5 million in Dar es Salaam and 2 million in Kampala can hail a variety of vehicles directly through the Mondo Ride App. Current offerings include: standard vehicles, large vans, bodabodas, tuktuks, and budget option.
“We are delighted to bring Mondo to the people of Uganda,Tanzania and Kenya and help provide the much needed mobility these fast growing economies need.” Said the co-Founder and CEO, Troels Anderson. “We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive response by the customers and drivers in each city and are excited to work with the local community to expand our services in a way that benefits their real life needs.”
Headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, the ride-hailing business Mondo Ride is a homegrown African company, with over 96% of its employees locally-based. The company’s mission, Moving Africa Forward, is a reflection of Mondo’s desire to help modernize Africa by improving the quality, safety, and availability of local and inter city transportation.
Last month Mondo Ride closed a Seed Funding round of US$ 5 million with the purpose of deepening the services provided in Kenya, providing transport services in new cities and investing in technology.
In addition to its transport offerings, Mondo Ride also provides corporate transportation service for businesses throughout the community. This unique aspect of their operations allows for companies to save on transportation and vehicle costs while safely moving their employees around the city.
Mondo Ride is recruiting drivers in Kisumu, Dar es Salaam and Kampala.
