About GoBuddy

GoBuddy is a last-mile delivery platform for e-commerce sellers. It matches parcels with commuters who are already travelling along the delivery route, which lowers transport costs and emissions compared with dedicated delivery vehicles and gives commuters a way to earn on trips they already make. Sellers use a dashboard to book and manage deliveries and track their logistics.

GoBuddy is based in Cape Town and was founded in 2021. It serves online retailers that need affordable doorstep delivery. In 2026 it joined the Ninety One Accelerator, run in support of The Earthshot Prize.
