Building for Sustainability
and Empowerment
Everyone has a story. Here is ours.
“What we have today is rising global temperature, natural disasters, air pollution, flooding, tsunami and co. CO₂ emissions are big contributors to all these. We live in a world where nature is abused, and it’s fighting back. Transportation in Africa accounts for almost 52% of CO₂ emissions.
To that, and the numbers in Africa are rising to be 2x in 10 years—that’s chaos waiting to happen within a twinkle of an eye. We are driven by the strong belief that, as the numbers rise, the environment can be safe for existence; the two can coexist simultaneously. Our joy is to wake up every day to enable Africa embrace clean transportation through financing 2W, 3W, and EV minibuses within the lower class as a ride-to-own”
