How OTTOH GO works
Freight across Africa has always moved. What it lacked was visibility. Our workflow replaces informal brokerage with a sequence anyone can audit: post, compare, lock, track. Each stage produces records that protect both the cargo owner and the operator, because trust should come from process, not personality.
Post the cargo type, weight, pickup point and destination in one guided form. The platform picks the vehicle category automatically, so a five tonne construction load is only offered to operators running suitable trucks and you never sift through mismatched offers.
Smart radius dispatch invites the closest idle drivers whose licences and identities are already verified. Bids arrive sorted by cheapest price, closest pickup and highest rating, so comparing five strong offers takes minutes instead of an afternoon of phone calls.
Accept a bid and pay the transparent platform fee through mobile money. Only when that payment is confirmed does the order activate, contact details unlock and live tracking switch on. The carrier fee stays separate from the platform fee, so no broker spread hides inside the price.
From loading confirmation to final handoff, route progress and milestone evidence accumulate on one timeline. Delivery is recorded, both sides rate each other, and the performance history feeds back into future dispatch decisions across the network.
Who the platform serves
Logistics is a relay, not a solo sport. OTTOH GO gives each participant a workspace with exactly the tools their role needs, while everyone shares one source of truth for orders, payments and proof of delivery.
Move freight without making ten phone calls to find one truck.
Fair job distribution, honest pricing, no broker cuts.
Run your fleet on data instead of notebooks and guesswork.
Continental corridors
Our home base is Dar es Salaam, but the network runs wherever a truck can drive. Every booking is routed country by country through the border posts freight actually uses, with transit days, customs regime and paperwork worked out before a driver bids, whether the load is going to Dodoma, Lubumbashi or Johannesburg.
Dar es Salaam → Dodoma → Mwanza → Rusumo → Kigali · Bujumbura · Goma
Landlocked Rwanda, Burundi and eastern DRC fed from the coast under the EAC Single Customs Territory.
Mombasa · Dar es Salaam → Nairobi → Malaba → Kampala → Juba
East Africa’s busiest trade artery, one-stop border posts from the coast to South Sudan.
Dar es Salaam → Tunduma → Lusaka → Kasumbalesa · Chirundu → Beitbridge → Johannesburg
Copper out of Zambia and the DRC; fuel, fertiliser and machinery in. The longest haul on the network.
Lagos → Cotonou → Lomé → Accra → Abidjan · Djibouti → Addis Ababa · Casablanca → Nouakchott → Dakar
ECOWAS coastal lanes, the Djibouti to Ethiopia lifeline and the Atlantic road south from Morocco.

Cross-border transit to
Where tarmac ends
Rural collection points, farm gates and project sites are first class locations here. Pin them precisely and nearby operators see them instantly.
Live order tracking
No account required. Enter the Order ID issued when a shipment was created and watch its status, route progress and assigned operator update in real time. It is the same evidence trail the client sees, open to whoever is waiting for the delivery at the other end.
Our position
“A freight market built on verified identity and visible pricing is not a luxury. It is the infrastructure this continent’s next decade of growth will stand on.”
OTTOH GO exists to make honest brokerage impossible to fake and reliable operators impossible to overlook.
East Africa in motion
From the quays of Dar es Salaam to the border posts of Namanga and Tunduma, goods in this region travel through one of the most demanding logistics environments on earth. Long distances, seasonal rains, informal brokerage — every kilometre has historically carried uncertainty that someone had to absorb by trust alone. OTTOH GO replaces that uncertainty with data: verified operators, competitive bidding, escrow-connected milestones and live route evidence on a single timeline.
Project cargo
Construction aggregates, cement, fuel, produce — each category carries its own compliance rules and we hold operators to them.
Last-mile bajaji
From bajaji last-mile runs to articulated haulage, every vehicle class is matched to the weight it can legally carry.
Container freight
Standardised container handling means predictable loading windows — and predictable pricing before you commit.
Port of Dar es Salaam
Every corridor journey starts at the quay. We coordinate the first mile so containers leave the port without idle days.
Why teams switch
Every shilling of the carrier bid belongs to the driver who earns it. Contact details stay masked until a deal is locked, which removes the side-dealing that inflates prices and erodes trust across the industry.
The commission is set centrally and shown before any commitment. If it ever changes, the update applies instantly across the marketplace rather than quietly inside someone’s pocket.
LATRA permits, NIDA identity numbers, insurance certificates and vehicle logbooks pass through a compliance desk before any truck can accept work. Verification is not a checkbox; it is the product.
Orders fan out in controlled batches to the nearest qualified idle drivers, starting close to the pickup and widening only when needed. Drivers see fair opportunity and clients get faster acceptance.
Payment confirmation is wired directly into the order. A shipment cannot go active until funds are verified, and every milestone (loaded, in transit, delivered) is recorded on the same protected timeline.
Two-way ratings after each delivery feed operator history into future matching. Reliable drivers rise toward better contracts; cargo owners learn who actually shows up when the rains do.
