In this new podcast episode of One Million Euro Stories, Iris Mettendaf speaks to the founder and CEO of Amitruck Mark Mwangi. Amitruck has raised $5,5 million capital.

Amitruck is building Africa’s digital logistic marketplace. The mission of Amitruck is to bring trust and transparency back to transport: “We aim to connect every cargo owner with interested transporters in a transparent, efficient and secure manner then let them set their own terms.”

As a former investment banker Mark Mwangi says: “I actually think it’s better to be called analysts. Because really all I did was analytics. I was going through companies, markets, economies, competitive dynamics and financial modeling. I was doing that most of the time as I was trying to price instruments. I think that experience has been very useful in terms of how to think about the business where you position yourself and understanding competitive threats. Just having that background of being able to look at things objectively within a market I think, comes in very handy when you become an enterpreneur.
