Bboxx, a data-driven super platform has announced a new partnership with Spiro, the largest Electric Vehicle (EV) company in Africa, to accelerate and democratise the continent’s clean mobility transition.
Details
The alliance will accelerate the delivery of EV motorcycles (e-motos) to customers whose livelihoods depend on access to inexpensive transport across East and West African markets.
Through this new alliance, Bboxx Pulse, the company’s proprietary integrated operating system (which currently processes around 40 payments per minute), enables Bboxx to profitably extend financial services with a low entry point to previously underserved communities. In addition, it provides a ready-made on-the-ground network for Spiro to reach new customers.
What They’re Saying
Mansoor Hamayun, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Bboxx, said: “Together with Spiro, Bboxx is accelerating Africa’s access to EVs – only our data-driven super platform, with its extensive on-the-ground network and ability to innovatively finance underserved communities, is able to deliver the services and products that will drive our markets’ climate transitions whilst transforming lives and livelihoods.”
Jules Samain, CEO of Spiro, said: “This partnership with Bboxx marks a significant leap in our journey to revolutionise Africa’s transportation landscape. By leveraging Bboxx’s extensive distribution network, we’re able to provide affordable and sustainable transport options, empowering countless communities while making significant strides in Africa’s clean mobility transition.”
Why This Matters
Bboxx and Spiro are entering urban and rural markets together. In doing so, they acquire a new set of customers. These customers will benefit from the suite of accessible products and services that Bboxx provides. They will have open access to connectivity and energy at a discounted rate.
