Thumela is a counter-to-counter last-mile delivery solution that enables e-commerce businesses and individuals to send and receive parcels with ease. The logistic start-up is on a mission to redefine last-mile delivery and make e-commerce accessible to all, especially to the large African population living in rural areas and townships.

The core of Thumela’s business is a network of pickup points near or at taxi ranks and public taxi drivers who are independent parcel carriers. With this innovation, Thumela affords collectors the convenience to combine their daily commuting with the collection of parcels.
