Lori, the preferred tech-driven logistics services company that seamlessly coordinates haulage across Africa, is proud to announce a partnership with Numeral IOT, a leading electronic design and manufacturing company in Kenya. Following a directive from the Kenyan Government, transporters will be required to have a government-approved speed governor by the close of the year. Lori is staying ahead of the curve by partnering with this leading Speed Governor provider to support its partners operations.

Jean-Claude Homawoo, Lori’s Co-founder, shares “Numeral IoT was the obvious choice for a partner in our ongoing efforts to support transporters in the region. Given their technical expertise, unique product offering and Morris Mbeta’s leadership, we’re confident transporters will find Numeral IoT to be the best solution for compliance.”

This partnership provides Loris’ transport partners with direct access to 40% off the government required speed governors.

Morris Mbetsa, Chief Executive Officer of Numeral IOT, shares, “we are excited to be part of this partnership. Our vision is to provide high tech IOT devices for our market that are affordable and accessible yet at the same time of high quality. IoT will only make sense in Africa if we start designing and manufacturing our own devices that will address problems unique to Africa. Numeral has invested in a fully automated Surface Mount Technology (SMT) for electronics manufacturing to enable this vision to come to fruition. We look forward to working with Lori.”
