How does MPost help address the e-commerce challenges?

Logistics: Reliable Logistics to be specific and addressing remain to be two key hindrances to the success of e-commerce in Kenya and the region at large. With the recent rise in technology, one cannot argue that the traditional shop/marketplace is slowly becoming obsolete. More and more businesses are moving online.

The start of the Covid-19 pandemic saw most businesses and individuals embrace online services, helping drive the growth of the sector. According to a report by Caroline Njenga of KBC, “E-commerce revenue in Kenya is expected to hit Kshs 430 billion this year driven by robust government investments in digital infrastructure that have increased internet adoption, uptake of digital services and mobile money innovations.” She further outlines that the absence of a National Addressing system is among the e-commerce challenges.

So how then is MPost helping address these challenges? First, through a first-of-its-kind patented addressing solution, you can now turn your mobile phone number into an official address e.g. P.O. Box 07xxxxxxxx – 00100, Kenya at a cost of 3 dollars annually.?

Second, MPost has introduced an affordable and reliable delivery service that is helping online businesses deliver goods to their clients. We have successfully done this for over a year attracting businesses across diverse industries such as Clothing (Shopzetu), Food (Wok on Wheels), etc
