Session: Inside the Gates: Building the Delivery Infrastructure Jumia and Bolt Structurally Cannot
Majority of Nigerian universities ban external delivery riders, meaning Bolt Food, Jumia Food, and every mainstream platform cannot enter the gate. Unimap+ solves this by building campus-native food delivery infrastructure: student riders earn ₦600–₦1,200 per delivery on flexible schedules, and hostel-based vendors — bakers, cooks, and campus eateries who have never had online presence pay a one-time onboarding fee to get their first ever digital storefront, instantly reaching thousands of students as customers. No recurring charges, no marketing budget needed. Students order through a web app, and every naira spent stays on campus, circulating within a student-powered micro-economy that creates real income and real businesses — built entirely from within the university gates.
