FastVan app launches in South Africa
FastVan, a new mobile app for booking couriers, local deliveries and removal services online, has launched in South Africa. CEO Daud Nur told Post&Parcel that the service went live about ten days ago, with about 12 delivery and removal companies currently on board.
The app is available to download from Google Play and Play Store, for iOS and Android device, with a desktop version set to launch in July. It allows users to gather instant quotes, compare prices and book the delivery services online.
“In allowing users to specify the exact details of the items that they want transported – size, shape, weight for couriers, a furniture inventory for removal – and where they wish the goods to be moved from and to, the app lets potential service providers create bespoke quotes,” said FastVan. “The customers can then compare services and accept or reject the quotes accordingly.
Nur told Post&Parcel that FastVan is currently providing a nationwide service across South Africa, and may look to launch in other African countries in the future.
