Approach

Built around the way people here already work.

Every product starts from a problem we've had ourselves, in a shop, a warehouse or a freight office.

01

Mobile money first

Mobile money is how most customers pay, so it's in from the first release.

02

Fast on 3G

Light pages and offline modes, so a sale never waits on the network.

03

WhatsApp & SMS

Alerts and receipts go where customers and staff already read messages.

04

Kiswahili na English

Screens, receipts and messages in the language of the person using them.

“The best software for Tanzanian businesses will be built by people who have run Tanzanian businesses.”
TonnyFounder & CEO

“I've spent my career inside the industries our products serve: telecom, mobile money and international logistics. I've seen how much time businesses lose to notebooks, spreadsheets and phone calls just to answer simple questions like what we sold today or where a customer's goods are.

I started Serengeti Labs to fix that with software that's simple, works on the phone in your pocket and fits the way business is done in Tanzania. Every product we build has to save our customers time and money from the first week.”
