Bolt Market has recorded 300% growth in orders since launching in December 2024. This remarkable trajectory highlights the rising demand for fast, affordable, and reliable grocery delivery in Kenya.
Key drivers of Bolt Market’s success include its diverse product offering and the convenience it provides, with average delivery times just over 15 minutes, positioning it as one of the fastest grocery delivery services in the country.
Kenyans have rapidly adopted Bolt Market into their weekly routines, appreciating the ability to order fresh produce, household essentials, and pantry staples with just a tap of a button. Other factors contributing to the impressive growth include: the rising demand for doorstep delivery, the expansion of retail partnerships to include both large retailers and local stores, giving customers access to a curated mix of over 3,500 products, and Bolt’s continuous investment in efficient delivery logistics via its extensive courier fleet.
“The reception of Bolt Market has exceeded our expectations. Kenyans want affordability without sacrificing convenience, and Bolt Market delivers exactly that. The rapid growth since launch confirms we are solving a real need. Looking ahead, our ambition is to expand coverage to more towns and neighbourhoods, ensuring even more people can access seamless, cost-friendly grocery delivery,” Edgar Kitur, General Manager of Bolt Food, said.
Looking ahead, Bolt Market will significantly broaden its delivery coverage and expand into new towns nationwide by the end of 2025. By connecting households to both large chains and local merchants, the service is not only simplifying shopping but also supporting the growth of Kenya’s retail ecosystem.
Bolt Market underscores Bolt’s commitment to redefining urban convenience in Kenya, saving people time, money, and effort while shaping the future of how cities shop.
