Bolt has announced the launch of Bolt Send, its parcel delivery service, in Kenya. This new offering introduces a faster, more affordable, and fully trackable solution for individuals and businesses seeking efficient ways to send and receive goods across the country.
The new service allows customers to request a delivery through the existing Bolt app, just as they would book a ride, with parcels and any other deliveries picked up and dropped off by vetted driver-partners. A key differentiator for Bolt Send lies in its commitment to affordability, coupled with the crucial benefits of real-time tracking and secure handling.
Dimmy Kanyankole, General Manager, Rides, Bolt said: “Kenya’s e-commerce and logistics sectors are expanding at an incredible pace, and our parcel delivery service is designed to meet that demand. We’re making last-mile delivery as seamless as booking a ride, significantly enhancing speed and efficiency for our valued customers, while simultaneously unlocking new earning opportunities for our dedicated driver-partners. As we diversify beyond rides, we see logistics as a natural extension of our platform. This launch underlines our vision to be a trusted partner in everyday life, whether it’s moving people, parcels, or powering businesses.”
Bolt Send is initially rolling out in Nairobi with plans to expand into other cities in the coming months. By tapping into Bolt’s established driver network, the service is expected to strengthen last-mile logistics, unlock fresh revenue streams for drivers, and help scale Kenya’s booming digital economy.
Bolt’s parcel delivery service is set to reshape how goods move across Kenya, reinforcing the country’s position as a leader in Africa’s digital innovation story.
