In recent years, delivery services have popped up in major cities across Africa. They take last-mile delivery to another level, allowing their users to order almost everything and get them delivered to their doorsteps. Nigerian entrepreneurs have decided to do the same by delivering food to busy individuals. 

Heyfood is a digital solution developed by an eponymous Nigerian start-up. It allows users to order foods from multiple restaurants. 

The solution has a mobile app accessible on Android and iOS. On registration, users can browse the available restaurants, order the foods they want and get them delivered as quickly as possible. 

Restaurants can also register on the platform to reach a broader client base. Using integrated features, they can manage and process orders and seamlessly receive payments. It also allows individuals to earn extra income by delivering orders.

Let’s note that Heyfood, an Ibadan-based startup founded in 2021, collects US$1 per order delivered. Its Android app has been downloaded more than 10,000 times. Currently, it is rated 3.9 out of 5 on Playstore. In 2022, the startup was selected to participate in the winter cohort of Californian accelerator Y Combinator.
