The Problem

90,000+ drivers.
Zero exit ramp.

Petrol motorcycles dominate last-mile delivery across South Africa. Rising fuel costs and the 2026 global oil shock are eroding up to R26,000 per year from driver take-home pay — with no affordable alternative available outside major metros.

R26K
Lost Annually
The average delivery driver loses up to R26,000 per year to petrol and maintenance costs — income that should be in their pocket.

EV Infrastructure
South Africa's secondary cities have active and growing delivery economies — and zero EV charging infrastructure to serve them.

Oil Shock
The 2026 global oil price shock has deepened fuel pain beyond any prior model. Electrifying now permanently insulates driver incomes from fossil fuel volatility.

Our Roadmap

Starting small.
Scaling smart.

GoGrid is built to prove, then replicate. Each stage unlocks the next — no speculation, no over-promise.

Stage 1
Active Now

Pilot

Johannesburg and Potchefstroom. 10 bikes across two cities. One charging bank per city. Proving that the model works — unit economics, driver adoption, and the secondary city thesis.

10 Bikes 2 Cities 12 Months
Stage 2
Seed-Funded

Expand

Secondary cities across South Africa. Each city is a self-sustaining business unit with a local team. Replicating the proven pilot playbook, faster.
