DISTRIBUTION MODEL INNOVATION

Haraka Home, based in Nairobi, Kenya, uses a distributed goods model of delivery that allows low prices and a superior consumer experience while still retaining healthy margins. Instead of receiving an order, loading a vehicle hours or days later with goods, and then traveling to the customer, Haraka’s delivery vehicles leave their warehouse every morning preloaded with products and continuously complete deliveries. This distribution strategy cuts delivery time, distance, and expense significantly.

PILOT AND SCALING GOALS

  • Complete 1,000 deliveries within first month of operations

  • Achieve delivery times of 45 minutes or less

  • Aiming for full net profitability
