GURARIDE is a Green E-mobility public bike-share (PBS) transport system company founded in 2017. It is committed to the sustainability of micro-mobility in Africa, with Rwanda being its first entry point. It employs a multimodal micro-mobility solution in a single app to enable users to choose their ride preference. Its main goal is the migration of transportation from fossil fuel-based vehicles to other non-pollutant means of transport using innovative technology. GURARIDE looks at changing the narrative for urban mobility in Africa, aiming to have a long-lasting impact on the environment, communities, transportation, and green jobs, while fostering healthy lifestyles.

In partnership with the City of Kigali, GURARIDE is starting its operations in two of Kigali’s city corridors and, as cycling infrastructure and road safety measures are put in place by the city authorities, it will gradually expand to cover additional areas in the city.

All GURARIDE’s bikes and e-bike models are completely assembled in Rwanda, complementing the efforts of the Government of Rwanda in promoting ‘Made in Rwanda’. One of the key long term business goals is to operate a fully equipped manufacturing/assembly plant in Rwanda, from which it can suitably service the East African communities and subsequently the continent.
