Yango Delivery Celebrates Top Couriers and Launches Insurance Program

Yango Delivery, a division of the global tech giant Yango Group, held a significant event for its partners’ couriers, featuring safety training and an awards ceremony to honor top performers. The event, held in Accra, brought together approximately 400 top-performing couriers who were celebrated with various awards, including high-end smartphones, award plaques, fuel coupons, hampers, and special souvenirs. Notably, three outstanding couriers were rewarded with brand new motorbikes.

In addition to the awards, the event aimed to enhance the financial literacy of the couriers by hosting facilitators who provided training on building healthy savings and investment habits. The highlight of the event was the launch of a new insurance program for partner couriers.

Starting in November 2024, all partner couriers will receive personal insurance coverage in case of health-related incidents while fulfilling orders through the Yango app. Speaking at the event, Country Manager of Yango Delivery in Ghana, Emmanuel Koduah, emphasized the importance of road safety and the crucial role played by couriers in the growth of the delivery sector in the country.

“Our goal is to build on successful partnerships and contribute to the advancement of safety and industry standards. Recognizing the efforts of partner couriers who collaborate with our platform is very important to us. Yango is committed to road safety, which requires everyone to play a role. In collaboration with Provident Insurance, we have introduced specialized free accident insurance to help protect couriers from potential financial losses in case of service-related incidents,” said Koduah.

Managing Director of Provident Insurance, Ken Doh, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership with Yango. “We are thrilled to partner with Yango to deliver innovative insurance products that cater to the unique needs of the delivery tech industry. This collaboration aligns with our commitment to providing tailored solutions and enhancing the overall confidence of all road users,” he stated.

Throughout the year, Yango has held several events to support and recognize the contributions of partner couriers, providing them with valuable information on road safety. In a recent event in March, the top 100 couriers were awarded for their exceptional efforts using the platform.
