Run the delivery hub for your city. Partner with Travo.
Logistics is becoming the backbone of how Nigeria shops, sells and moves. Travo is building the national network that powers it — and we’re looking for committed local partners to own and run the hubs. You bring a location and local drive; we bring the brand, the orders, the technology and weekly payouts.
A business that’s ready to run on day one
A Travo hub is a branded depot and drop-off point in your area, fitted with two dispatch bikes and a small van. The demand, the systems and the money-handling already exist — your job is to run great local operations. Here’s how the partnership splits.
You hold the ground
A street-level unit in a busy part of your city, the bikes and van, and a small local team you hire and manage.
Travo sends the orders
Customers book through the Travo app and website. Jobs in your zone are routed to your hub first — national marketing fills the pipeline.
You run deliveries
Your riders accept, pick up and deliver. You hit the service targets; we handle pricing, support and the driver app.
You get paid weekly
Travo collects every payment — cash on delivery included — and pays your commission seven days after delivery.
What Travo brings
- The platform, the brand and the app your hub lists inside
- A flow of real orders, routed to your zone first
- National marketing that keeps demand coming
- Pricing set for you — no haggling, no guesswork
- All payment collection, including cash on delivery
- Weekly payouts, seven days after delivery
- Driver app, onboarding and ongoing operational support
What you bring
- A qualifying location — owned or leased — in your target area
- Two dispatch bikes and one small van
- The branding fit-out (we supply the kit and the look)
- A small local team: riders, a driver and an attendant
- Working capital to run the first weeks smoothly
- Commitment to the service standards that keep your territory exclusive
What a hub can earn
These are illustrative monthly scenarios for a single hub — built from the franchise model’s own unit economics, based on roughly 26 working days. They are not a guarantee. A hub that’s still building demand can sit near break-even; a strong, well-run hub in a busy zone does considerably better. What’s fixed is the structure: you earn a commission on every job, and you’re paid weekly.
- Focus Grow order volume
- Payouts Weekly
- Risk De-risked by the pilot stage
- Payback ~20 months
- Annual return ~61% illustrative
- Payouts Weekly
- Payback ~9 months
- Drivers Busy zone, full fleet
- Payouts Weekly
The deal, at a glance
Transparent terms, designed so our interests line up with yours. Travo only earns when your hub earns.
What it takes to set up
A full hub is roughly ₦22m all-in — but you don’t start there. Most partners begin with a lighter pilot depot of about ₦10m, prove the demand, then scale to the full kit. Here’s the full-build picture.
| Item | Indicative cost |
|---|---|
| Small delivery van | ₦12.0m |
| Two dispatch bikes | ₦3.0m |
| Premises — rent & fees (secured for the term) | ₦3.12m |
| Working capital (first weeks) | ₦1.5m |
| Branding kit & fit-out | ₦2.45m |
| Full build — indicative total | ~₦22m |
Pilot depot stage starts from about ₦10m. Figures are indicative and vary by city and property.
A de-risked, phased path
You don’t commit the full investment on faith. We prove demand together, in stages.
Demand check
We confirm order demand in your zone before you spend on vehicles or fit-out.
Pilot depot
Launch lean (from ~₦10m), start taking live orders and prove the unit economics in your area.
Full kit
Scale to the complete hub — full fleet, full branding — once the pilot is working.
Grow
Push volume, hit the targets, and secure your territory as the network expands around you.
Who we’re looking for
We’re selective on purpose — a hub only works with the right partner behind it. You’re a strong fit if you tick most of these:
Where we’re opening hubs
Lagos and Abuja are the immediate priority — but strong partners in any Nigerian city help decide where we expand next.
Lagos
High-demand zones across the mainland and island — Lekki, Ikeja, Yaba, Surulere, Ikorodu, Ajah, Festac and beyond. If you hold a good site in a busy Lagos LGA, you’re exactly who we want to talk to.
Explore Lagos hub opportunities →Abuja (FCT)
Growing demand across Wuse, Garki, Maitama, Gwarinpa, Lugbe, Kubwa and the satellite towns. Early hubs in Abuja get first pick of territory.
Explore Abuja hub opportunities →Elsewhere in Nigeria — Port Harcourt, Ibadan, Kano, Benin, Enugu and more — we’re building the map now. Apply and tell us your city.

The future of logistics in Nigeria is local
Travo is building the network. The hubs will be owned by partners who moved early. If that’s you, let’s talk.
