Shride Technologies has announced plans to launch a tech-driven platform designed to make urban mobility smarter, safer, and more efficient.
According to a statement by the firm, moving people, food, parcels, and medicine across Nigerian cities has been a frustrating ordeal, from endless traffic jams to unreliable delivery systems and cash-only transactions that expose users to risk.
The statement reads in part, “But one Nigerian startup, Shride Technologies, is changing that narrative with a tech-driven platform designed to make urban mobility smarter, safer, and more efficient.”
According to the statement, Shride combines transport, logistics, and digital payment solutions in one platform to tackle long-standing challenges in Nigeria’s delivery and ride-hailing space.
In addition, the platform offers AI-powered route optimisation, cashless transactions, and a network of trained riders, known as Shriders, who handle rides, food, parcel, and pharmacy deliveries with professionalism and speed.
Peacemark Hammed, founder of Shride Technologies, explained that Shride was built to address key pain points in the logistics sector, including poor mapping, unreliable dispatch coordination, and safety concerns.
He said, “Our goal is to provide a reliable, transparent, and technology-backed system that customers and riders can trust.”
In addition, Hammed said that the company’s innovation extends beyond convenience. Through its growing rider network, Shride is creating jobs, supporting small businesses, and improving access to essential goods and services across cities. Plans are also underway to expand operations nationwide and roll out electric motorcycles as part of efforts to promote environmental sustainability.
