Kwik Delivery is an on-demand, last-mile delivery platform launched in 2019 that connects African businesses to independent delivery riders called Kwiksters. The company’s mobile app is available on iOS and Android, and the platform is currently open to Kwiksters operating in Lagos State. Kwik Delivery trades as Africa Delivery Technologies SAS. Founder & CEO Romain Poirot-Lellig said the company has demonstrated efficiency and the relevance of its technology-based approach to customers and investors during a challenging period. The company raised $1.7 million in equity in a pre-Series A round from institutional and high-net-worth investors. Management says the financing will enable faster growth and support expansion into new markets. Africa Delivery Technologies operates the Kwik Delivery on-demand delivery platform, launched in Lagos in June of last year and targeting Nigeria’s B2B and B2B2C markets. The company was founded in 2018 by Olivier Decrock (Paris-based) and Romain Poirot‑Lellig (Nigeria-based). Kwik aims to scale operations in Nigeria following recent investor interest. Yves Guillemot, founder of Ubisoft, has invested in the company as part of its ongoing Series A round to support that expansion. Crunchbase records show the company has raised over $500,000 across four rounds since 2018. The platform’s core product is rapid delivery services for business customers; no revenue or user metrics were disclosed in the article.
