Urban logistics
The demand for urban logistics space throughout the continent is growing, as there is an increasing number of e-commerce orders.
Due to congestion and lack of effective transport systems, most people find it stressful going to town.
And this is where some African entrepreneurs have taken advantage of.
In Kenya, Twiga Foods uses technology to pool the orders of people and delivers them to their doorstep.
With this, consumers do not have to face the hurdle of going all the way to the market.
Twiga Foods is one of the largest distributors of food staples in Kenya. Last year, the company raised $10.3 million.
