eWAKA (www.eWAKA.tech), the company building the operating platform for commercial electric mobility in Africa, has been recognized among Africa’s Top 50 Mobility Companies in the 2026 MobilityX Africa rankings, placing 13th overall out of more than 250 companies assessed across the continent.
The recognition serves as independent validation for a business that has consistently exhibited disciplined execution, efficient capital allocation, and a unique operating model in one of the world’s fastest-growing mobility markets. Currently, eWAKA operates in Kenya and Rwanda, where it has deployed over 1,200 electric cargo bicycles and motorcycles, facilitating more than 1.1 million deliveries through its integrated mobility platform. These achievements demonstrate the commercial viability of eWAKA’s capital-efficient operating model and establish a solid foundation for future growth.
eWAKA has built an integrated platform that combines managed electric fleets, rider and technician management, affordable battery access, financing, and proprietary software, delivered through a disciplined, capital-efficient approach to growth. The company’s inclusion among Africa’s highest-ranked mobility businesses reinforces the strength of that strategy.
The report also recognized eWAKA as one of the Top 5 mobility companies in Kenya, the highest-ranked woman-led mobility company in East Africa, and one of only a few woman-founded companies included in the continental ranking.
“This recognition is not about a ranking. It is about validating a way of building companies,” said Céleste Tchetgen Vogel, Founder and CEO of eWAKA. “The future of mobility will not be defined by who builds the most vehicles. It will be defined by who builds the operating platforms that make electric mobility commercially sustainable. This recognition validates our conviction that disciplined execution and thoughtful capital allocation can create enduring businesses.”
At eWAKA, the motorcycle is just one component of a connected ecosystem, rather than the final product. By integrating vehicles, software, financing, battery infrastructure, and fleet operations into a single operating platform, the company allows commercial electric mobility to scale.
As eWAKA enters its next phase of growth, the company is focused on expanding its managed fleet platform, strengthening its technology capabilities and deploying growth capital into a business model that has already demonstrated its ability to support continued growth.
