Join us for an After Office Hours session with Mark Mwangi, CEO and Co-founder at Amitruck as he walks us through his entrepreneurial journey that has seen him build one of the leading and successful companies in the transport and logistics industry.
During the session, Mark will also walk us through his journey from being a truck driver to becoming a logistics start-up co-founder and CEO, what really pushed him into taking this bold step and what opportunities lie in the continent’s logistics industry?
Away from the company, Mark will also share the dos and don’ts of scaling a company in new territories, his elevator pitch, and his biggest mistake (and what he learnt from it).
Amitruck raised a pre-seed round of USD5 million in 2021, and less than a year later the company backed US$4 million seed round to help it expand across Africa and expand its team across key functions, including sales, engineering, and customer success. Get to learn from Mark, what one needs to look out for while seeking company funding.
Amitruck’s database consists of over 8,000 vehicles, which have in just over two years completed almost 100,000 deliveries for more than 300 corporate clients.
Consequently, its revenue grew 1,000 percent in 2021. The startup is now eyeing market dominance in the Africa trucking and logistics market, which accounts for almost 80 per cent of transported goods.
