Zyda expands its ecommerce platform in Egypt

E-commerce platform provider Zyda, has expanded into the Egyptian market, with investments of over $2 million (EGP 30 million).

Launched in early 2018 in Kuwait, Zyda enables restaurants and retailers to reach customers online without relying on third-party delivery companies. Through Zyda, restaurant owners can easily set up their website and decide which areas to deliver to and adjust their price per delivery zone. They can also receive orders through various social media platforms and activate a variety of online payment options. Their revenues take two to five days to be deposited into their account.

Since its inception, the startup has helped restaurant owners generate more than $100 million in total customer sales, saving them over $5 million worth of commissions typically required by third-party service providers.

"We are thrilled to be expanding into Egypt,“ said Hamad Al-Judai, CEO of Zyda. "We are betting on the success of this expansion, not only because Egypt is a large and promising market, but also because of the many unique advantages we offer restaurants and retailers to help boost their business; most significantly that they pay zero commissions on their sales, which is a great competitive edge.“
