Gozem operates a SuperApp that combines ride-hailing, delivery, digital payments (Gozem Money) and a vehicle-financing arm known as Gozem Financing, which uses a "Drive-to-Buy" instalment model across smartphones, motorbikes, three-wheelers and cars. As of late 2025 the company reported facilitating around one million trips per month, surpassing one million registered users, and counting nearly 10,000 registered drivers; it has financed over 7,000 vehicles and reported generating more than $90 million in cumulative earnings for 40,000 driver-partners. Public estimates of 2025 revenue vary (Latka reports $112.9 million while other estimates place it near $72 million), and the company had about 590 employees per Latka. Gozem has expanded its footprint to Togo, Benin, Gabon, Cameroon and, since November 2025, the Republic of Congo, and plans entry into Côte d'Ivoire by the end of 2026. The company has pursued strategic partnerships—such as with MTN Congo for Wi‑Fi–equipped financed vehicles—and used Series B capital to strengthen vehicle financing and accelerate rollout of its digital-money services. Its integrated ecosystem and vehicle-financing model are central to its growth strategy, though management faces operational and currency risks as it scales into larger, more competitive markets.
