Ozi app has officially been launched in Nigeria. The pioneering community-driven delivery app, is set to a fresh, innovative approach to package delivery in the country.
Ozi chose Nigeria as its launchpad due to the immense potential within the local parcel delivery sub-sector. Designed to connect travelers with individuals needing parcel delivery, the app transforms everyday journeys into opportunities for extra income while providing an affordable, reliable delivery option. The app enters the global Courier, Express, and Parcel (CEP) market, valued at $460 billion, with the potential to revolutionize how packages are sent.
Concept
Ozi’s concept is simple; travelers utilize unused space in their vehicles to deliver packages along their routes, earning extra cash in the process. For instance, a driver traveling from Lagos to Abuja can monetize the empty space in their car by delivering a package, creating a win-win scenario for both travelers and senders.
Speaking at the launch event held at Four Points by Sheraton, Victoria Island, Lagos, Engr. Christian Chime, Ozi’s co-founder and CEO, highlighted the platform’s unique value proposition.
“Why travel empty when you can earn?” Ozi empowers travelers to maximize their journeys while helping others deliver their packages effortlessly. It’s a fast, cost-effective, and highly efficient logistics solution tailored to the needs of Nigerians,” said Engr. Chime.
Azubuike Augustine, co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, emphasized the app’s commitment to safety and transparency. “Ozi’s mission goes beyond package delivery; it’s about creating shared value. We ensure every user undergoes rigorous ID verification and phone authentication,” he explained. “With features like real-time tracking and optional insurance for high-value items, Ozi guarantees peace of mind for both senders and travelers.”
