About SafeBoda
SafeBoda is a motorcycle riding service (locally termed as Boda Bodas) which was started in 2014 November.
After realizing a big gap in the transportation sector of Uganda (particularly the motorcycling community), Maxime Dieudonne (Belgian origin), Rapa Thomson Ricky (Ugandan origin) and Alastair Sussock (British origin) came together to discover a tech solution to the very hated and bad mouthed motorcycling business, which was known to have unruly and rowdy individuals who never respected traffic laws.
In an initiative to rebrand motorcycling and give it a touch of professionality and easy access, SafeBoda slowly and surely grew to start in Kampala and gaining momentum until when it shot.
Through their mobile application, their goal of improving the industry for both drivers and passengers is being achieved. The SafeBoda community opened up training academy for its riders, which is the first of its kind in Uganda. Safe Boda currently has over 6000 riders operating within Kampala, and nearby districts and indeed the feedback they are attracting from the masses shows that their expansion shall even shoot too far away regions than Kampala.
