Overview

Parenting is challenging. what used to be deemed a woman’s issue is now everyone’s issue. Parents face mobility challenges like safety, time constraints, family and work life balance and fragmented transportation. Founded in 2020, Kids Transportation Service is pioneering school transportation in Cameroon and is dedicated to ensuring safe, reliable, and sustainable transportation solutions for children. Recognizing the growing need for specialized services that cater to the unique requirements of transporting young passengers, we have developed a comprehensive platform that prioritizes safety, convenience, and peace of mind for parents and efficient logistics for schools.

Our app, ViewMax, serves as the backbone of our operations. Designed with both parents, kids and drivers in mind, ViewMax offers real-time tracking, communication features, and a user-friendly interface that simplifies the process of arranging transportation for children. Parents can schedule rides with just a few taps, receive notifications about their child’s journey, and access detailed information about the driver and vehicle. This transparency fosters trust and allows parents to feel secure knowing their children are in capable hands.

Since our inception, we have focused on building strong relationships with schools, parents, and communities. By collaborating with educational institutions, we aim to streamline the transportation process for students, making it easier for families to access reliable school commutes. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our efforts to utilize eco-friendly vehicles and promote shared rides, reducing our carbon footprint while enhancing community connectivity.

As we look to the future, Kids Transportation Service aims to expand our reach and enhance our services through continuous innovation. We envision a world where every child has access to safe transportation, empowering families and enriching lives. With ViewMax leading the way, we are not just a transportation service; we are a partner in nurturing the next generation—one ride at a time.

Revenue Growth
The school transportation market in Africa is projected to grow significantly, reaching $4 billion by 2030. In Cameroon, the demand for student transportation services is rising due to urbanization, traffic congestion, and inadequate public transportation. This market gap presents an opportunity for convenient and reliable services. To capitalize on this, we plan to expand beyond school transportation into extracurricular activities, playdates, and more. With challenges like limited infrastructure and low car ownership, there’s a growing demand for student transportation providers to meet mobility needs and tap into a broader market.
