TUNL TUNL exports parcels more affordably to help grow African SMEs

Team

Matthew Davey is an engineer, Rhodes Scholar and Oxford Masters graduate. He was most recently the managing director of a Dutch company that imported South African engineering materials into Europe. He established the company, and set up their European logistics network and stock warehousing. He resigned from this job in December to pursue TUNL full time.

Craig Lowman is an experienced import-export entrepreneur and recent MBA graduate from Columbia Business School and the Graduate School of Business, Cape Town. He has 10 years’ experience founding and managing various successful businesses, including two import and distribution companies with exclusive licenses for several global brands.

We met 5 years ago and started meeting weekly last year to discuss business ideas while Craig was finishing his MBA. Our combined 15+ years of importing / exporting from South Africa had shown us that parcels exports hold back business growth in South Africa, so we started building TUNL.
