Local first
We build for Kenyan streets, shops and payment habits, not a template borrowed from somewhere else.
About HUB
Building the hub for local commerce in Kenya.
HUB puts your neighbourhood shops and a courier network in one app, so buying local is finally effortless.
Our mission
Make local commerce work for everyone
HUB started with a simple frustration. The shop around the corner had exactly what you needed, but getting it to your door meant phone calls, guesswork on the price, and no idea when it would arrive. At the same time, riders were looking for honest work and shops were looking for customers beyond their own street.
So we built one app that connects all three. Customers browse local shops. Merchants get a storefront and a dispatch network from day one. Verified couriers get nearby jobs, clear pay, and M-Pesa payouts after every delivery. Everything is tracked live, and everything is paid through M-Pesa.
We are a small team based in Nairobi, building for Kenya first. Every feature is shaped by the shops and couriers who use it, and we ship improvements every week.

What we value
The principles behind every decision
A few things we hold to as we grow, on every side of the marketplace.
Trust by default
Verified couriers, honest pricing, and proof on every order. Safety is a feature, never an afterthought.
Fair for everyone
Clear commission for shops, clear pay for couriers, and the full price up front for buyers.
Fast and simple
One tap to shop, one map to watch it arrive. We remove steps, we do not add them.
Built with the city
Shops and couriers shape what we build. We ship, listen, and improve every single week.
Here for the long run
We are building infrastructure Kenya can rely on, not a land grab that disappears next year.
Loved by the city
Buyers, shops and couriers trust HUB
I order groceries from the shop down the road and they arrive before I’ve finished my coffee. I can watch the courier the whole way.
HUB put my shop online in an afternoon. Orders come straight to my dashboard and a courier shows up to collect, every time.
Best app to deliver for. Pay is clear, it lands on M-Pesa after every delivery, and the routes actually make sense. I choose my own hours.
