Bolt expands motorbike delivery service in Mombasa
Bolt Send, which was introduced in Mombasa in March using cars, is targeted at small retailers, online sellers, restaurants, pharmacies, offices and individuals seeking a convenient way to deliver parcels.
Mombasa, Kenya - Bolt has expanded its Bolt Send delivery service to include motorbikes in the city, providing a faster and more flexible option for small parcels. Initially launched in March using cars, the service targets small retailers, online sellers, restaurants, pharmacies, offices and individual customers. The introduction of motorcycles aims to meet the rising demand for urban deliveries, particularly for smaller parcels that require quick and affordable transportation through the city.
Dimmy Kanyankole, Senior General Manager, Rides, East Africa, emphasized that delivery has become crucial for businesses to serve customers effectively, as delayed deliveries can lead to missed sales and increased operating costs. Bolt Send can be requested through the Bolt app, with customers receiving an upfront price estimate and real-time delivery tracking.
Parcels are delivered by Bolt driver-partners using motorcycles, offering businesses an accessible delivery alternative without the need to maintain their own operations.
