About Relay

Relay is an errand marketplace and shop directory built for Zimbabwe, starting in Harare. Users post what they need done, a verified runner nearby accepts the task, and the two deal directly to get it completed. The service focuses on everyday local errands handled by real people in the city rather than by a delivery fleet.

Alongside errands, Relay lets merchants open a shop on the platform in minutes and be listed in a browsable directory of local stores and verified sellers. Support runs over WhatsApp, and the company is active on LinkedIn and X under the relayzw name.
