الوصف الوظيفي
By some estimates consumers in Africa spend relatively up to ten times more of their disposable income on food compared to developed markets. On the other hand smallholder farmers in fresh produce supply chains encounter multiple challenges that prevent them from achieving sustainable livelihoods through their farms. This economic challenge to food security is primarily caused by the highly fragmented and inefficient retail market across the continent where roughly 90% consists of small independent retailers.
YoLa Fresh is aiming to be Africas largest fresh produce supply chain which leverages technology and data to organize the agriculture commerce ecosystem. Our technology and Africacentric solutions will disrupt the way fruits and vegetables move from farms to consumers plates. We empower farmers and other players in the ecosystem in ways never done before. Our Supply Chain is equipped to move thousands tonnes of perishables from farms to businesses every day in less than 24 hours.
YoLa Fresh has been founded by repeat Founders from leading technology unicorns (Jumia Careem NinjaCart Avito etc.). Alongside them YoLa Fresh got a stellar set of investors (African and International VCs) & advisors (executives from blue chip companies).
We are a highly motivated results driven community who focus on proactive approaches to problem solving. We cherish entrepreneurial spirit and provide significant operating autonomy to senior leaders. There are ample opportunities and challenges to be solved at scale and in realtime.

- Optimizing our logistics network to deliver thousands of tons of fresh produce daily by meeting the SLAs minimizing spoilage and maximizing efficiency.
