Popote

About Popote

Popote is a logistics application that seeks to make logistics efficient for businesses,
especially online and social commerce businesses allowing them to grow without last
mile logistical limitation.
Popote will also handle person to person deliveries and in the future handle freight.
Popote will establish a network of logistics partners (bicycles, motorbikes, cars, pickups,
trucks) in different cities to facilitate the movement of goods. The partners will be prevetted and onboarded. Based on their location and capacity they will be able to pick up
and fulfil job requests.
Businesses will have a portal from which they will view and manage requests and settle
pending bills.
Popote will also maintain dark stores across the country from which social and ecommerce businesses that don’t have warehouses can store their goods. The businesses
will take stock of their inventory. When they receive orders, they will enter the delivery
details. The Popote riders will then pick up the item/s from the dark store and deliver it
to the client. The shipping cost can either be paid by the business or paid directly by the
client to us. E-commerce orders will automatically initiate the delivery process and bill
the e-commerce store. The customers will be notified via SMS and email of the
upcoming delivery as well as given a tracking URL from which they can track their
delivery.
Popote Fresh will handle the fresh logistics chain.
Popote Freight will handle long and cross continent cargo deliveries through the Popote
brokerage and freight bidding application.
