Yango Delivery, a technology company providing a platform for placing and receiving in-city delivery orders has introduced Cargo Express, its latest offering designed to streamline the delivery of large and bulky items across Africa.
Cargo Express is launching in major cities like Abidjan, Accra, and Lusaka and aims to be the standard for large-item logistics on the continent. Customers also enjoy the benefits of additional options of mover’s help and ten free minutes of loading and unloading time, adding to the convenience of the service.
How It Works
Cargo Express provides its service with clear and upfront pricing. This guarantees customers that the price they see at the time of placing their order is precisely what they will be charged.
On placing the order, a customer is kept informed on each step of the orders execution. The status of delivery is broadcasted as push notifications as well as movement of the delivery item is displayed on the Yango in-app map.
Why This Matters
The solution is a timely response to the challenges in the current logistics ecosystem which often faces issues of inefficiency and lack of clear pricing.
What They’re Saying
Ireoluwa Obatoki, Head of Business Development for Africa at Yango Delivery, comments on the launch: “The introduction of Cargo Express is a testament to our commitment to improving urban delivery service through technology, supporting the local partners of logistics companies and their couriers with new opportunities for better income, and ensuring clear and transparent pricing in the delivery market across Africa.
The escalating trend of online shopping underscores the need for capable delivery services for large items. Cargo Express aims to fill this gap, offering a dependable and straightforward solution.”
Zoom Out
The Cargo Express service expands Yango’s portfolio, adding to its existing array of services such as ride-hailing (Yango), light package delivery by motorbike (Yango Delivery), and food delivery options (Yango Deli), providing a comprehensive selection of daily services in one app.
