Hellofood, Kenya’s leading online food portal that allows users to order for food online from a listing of over 270 restaurants selling on its online marketplace, is celebrating its 3rd anniversary.
Since its founding in November 2012, Hellofood Kenya has grown by double digits to revolutionize how Kenya eats by providing food delivery services to customers across Nairobi and recently Mombasa. The company has also developed mobile shopping applications from which customers can shop to keep up with the changing trends and technologies.
Managing Director, Hellofood Kenya, Duncan Muchangi expressed his pride in the milestones the company has made in the last three years and re-assured its commitment to continue to render world-class services tirelessly to its customers.
“The contentment that comes with seeing so many people able to order for food online and have it delivered in their offices or homes is immeasurable. I am happy to be part of a company that continues to revolutionize the way a country eats.”
Dun further stated that as a result of the growing customer base and the demand for the food ordering services, the company had rolled its first expansion into Mombasa with plans to expand to other major towns underway. He said that the move would also create hundreds of job opportunities for talented youths.
“Because of the support thousands of loyal customers and dedicated staff have given us, we are able to give back to the community by providing job opportunities to hundreds as we continue to expand across Kenya. The customer experience will only get better from here.”
Across Africa, Hellofood has grown 20 percent per month in the last 36 months, tripled in size in the last 12 months and now employs over 500 people in 11 challenging markets 50 percent of who are women and to this day, its delivery riders have traveled the equivalent of one hundred times around the earth to make deliveries while six of its former employees have moved on to start own technological companies.
In celebrating its 3rd anniversary, Hellofood will be offering up-to 50% discounts ordered on the 27th of this month to coincide with Black Friday, which is expected to record the highest ever online food orders ever.
