Zembo, headquartered in Kampala, Uganda, operates in the transportation and logistics sector by providing affordable electric motorcycles and maintaining a network of battery swap stations, now numbering over 30. The business targets motorcycle taxi operators and informal sector participants, offering a lower-cost mobility option while aiming to reduce emissions. A notable milestone in its early growth was the launch of an electric motorcycle taxi fleet in 2018 to boost drivers' earnings and cut carbon emissions. Zembo has expanded its reach in Africa, launching an intercity e-corridor for electric motorcycles in 2022. The company is developing a network of automatic battery swap stations to improve swap speeds, with support from partners. In 2025 Zembo announced a partnership with Tugende Limited to support informal sector entrepreneurs, illustrating collaboration with a social-enterprise focused partner.
