As Procurement Officer in an aviation company, Gerald Kimiya Mayela saw a gap in their company's courier services after their messenger stole and absconded work. Seeing the business opportunity, he was inspired to look at what was in his hand to venture into the courier services industry. In his hands was a motorbike, and so with that, he humbly established Harakisha Couriers in 2012.
Being the Founder and CEO of Harakisha Courier & Logistics Ltd, Gerald, and Esther, his wife, have endeavored to build their business through the challenges and victories they have experienced. The challenges range from one of their rider stealing a client's items to another using Harakisha resources to do their side hustle. The successes have been increasing the number of employees and staying focused despite the challenges.
