Tikus, The new delivery app in town

Tikus is the newest addition to the food delivery apps operating in Addis Ababa. It is a product of Avenir technologies, Which was founded by 6 young founders. They released their app back in May and have been gaining popularity and taking a share of the market progressively. But what really outshines Tikus from the other Food delivery apps is that they are trying to fully operate in an eco-friendly manner. They use bicycles and E-bikes to achieve a 0 carbon operation. Operating in a 0 carbon environment is really difficult especially if your operations consist of transportation.

Tikus has recently been granted funding from The Bridges program that is supported by the Mastercard foundations for their job creation plan. They plan to create more than 1000 new jobs for the youth in the coming month. They also help their employees by organizing a loan from banks so that their bikers can own their bikes for as low as a 10% down payment. Apart from this they also give their bikers good benefits.
