Longani — Africa's logistics marketplace
Stop driving home empty.
Longani matches trucks and loads across Africa. List return legs, fill empty miles, and find capacity on the routes you actually run — backed by an AI assistant that knows the corridors, the borders, and the fair rate.
No account needed to search. Transporters sign in to list capacity.
How it works
Three steps. No middlemen, no opaque rates, no waiting at the border while someone makes a phone call.
Search the route
Type origin, destination, and date. Longani shows what's available right now — including return legs.
Request a quote
Send your cargo details to the transporter in one click. No phone tag, no WhatsApp threads to chase.
Move the load
Track the trip end-to-end. Pay through Longani when the load is delivered. Both sides see everything.
Fill the return leg.
Most trucks on Africa's corridors run empty one way. Longani turns that empty kilometre into revenue. List your trucks, set your rate, accept the bookings that fit your route.
- Auto-listings created from your active contracts
- Set your own rate per tonne — we don't mark it up
- Accept/reject bookings in seconds
Find capacity, fast.
Stop calling around. Search live capacity on the route you need, see fair-market rates, and book without an account. Big contracts? Post once, let transporters bid.
- Search 100% free — no signup, no commitment
- Transparent suggested rates per tonne
- Live trip tracking from pickup to delivery
The killer feature
Backhaul matching — your return leg, paid for.
Every active contract on Longani automatically creates a return-leg listing the moment a truck heads home. Load owners on the reverse corridor see it instantly. Empty kilometres become revenue, without anyone making a single phone call.
- Auto-listed from the trip you're already running
- Visible to load owners on the return route within seconds
- Suggested fair-market rate per tonne, set automatically
Built for the way Africa actually moves
We're not porting a US logistics app to Africa. Longani is built ground-up for the corridors, currencies, and border posts that transporters here actually deal with.
Longa, the AI co-pilot
Ask it to find trucks, recommend a rate, summarise a trip, or flag risks. Built for African corridors, not Silicon Valley.
Backhaul matching
Every active contract automatically creates a return-leg listing the moment a truck heads home — turning dead miles into revenue.
Trust by default
Verified transporters, ratings on both sides, and escrow-style payment so neither party gets burned.
