Softdrop is a logistics app that enables users across Nigeria to move goods from one location to another as long as that destination is their destination. For example, someone who lives in Lekki and works in Ikeja, can open the app and check whether someone wants to deliver something to Ikeja, pick it up and drop it off at Ikeja on his way to work and get paid for doing it. This innovative idea has the potential to create millions of jobs in Nigeria in the next five years. How?

“Softdrop reduces the cost and hassle of transporting goods across the country”

First, Softdrop reduces the cost and hassle of transporting goods across the country. Instead of hiring expensive courier services or relying on unreliable public transport, users can simply find someone who is going to the same place and entrust them with their delivery. This saves time, money and energy for both the sender and the receiver.

Second, Soft drop creates opportunities for anyone who is transporting themselves from one location to another and has a smartphone to earn extra income by delivering goods for others. Whether they are students, workers, drivers or homemakers, they can use their spare time and space to make money while helping others. This also boosts their social network and reputation as reliable and trustworthy service providers.
