Hello,
The Anzisha prize is a community that celebrates and supports young entrprenuers running businesses with high impact in their countries, employing their peers and paving the way for others to do the same. I’m so honoured and excited to be an Anzisha prize finalist this year and also joining the Anzisha community as a fellow. My works at Minute5 are to simply improve the food supply chain and delivery system in Uganda and while we are at it, we shall create a number of high skill jobs to the youth in Uganda.I'm honoured and excited to be an Anzisha prize finalist
Minute5 is an online grocery delivery service that aims at delivering fresh farm produce to consumers and businesses at the most affordable prices and delivered quickly. It’s our duty as the team at Minute5 to fulfil and deliver our promise without any hitch. Currently we are working with over 20 vendors, 11 dedicated delivery riders and 2 digital market places and we are currently skilling 7 young men and women to join our team. Our goal is to help bring over 1000 people back to work because of the COVID19 pandemic and create a minimum of 500 jobs for the youth by the year 2025.
Our goals are not ours alone, but for everyone who believes in improving society and creating decent work. Part of our work is to also encourage our fellow young people to go into farming because our country depends on it and we at Minute5 can help them earn through farming as a business. We call upon everyone to join us on our journey of reaching our goals and improving the food distribution in Uganda.
Our goal is to Bring The Market To You
We shall have a bootcamp with the different finalists and have a pitch day where the best entrepreneur will be given funding of upto $25,000. With such funding we shall be able to grow our business and create a number of job opportunities. I call upon everyone to visit The Anzisha Prize , register for the virtual event and vote for me
