Hello and welcome. I am Kwame Asante-Boateng and this is Lagos to Nairobi by Pitch Deck, the show where founders across Africa tell me how the company really got built. Today we are in Kigali with a woman who started a bus ticketing company with one laptop and a borrowed motorbike. Her first month she sold forty tickets. Last month she sold two hundred thousand. In between there was a bank that said no three times, a co-founder who left, and a government tender that nearly sank everything. We talk about all of it, including the exact moment she knew the model worked and the spreadsheet she still checks every morning. Stay with me, because the part about the motorbike is worth the wait.
