Who we are

Designed & manufactured in South Africa.

In the vibrant pulse of South Africa’s urban sprawl, where narrow township paths wind through communities pulsing with life, Africa’s leading e-cargo bike innovators and builders, Stroom, are forging a path to transformation.

Our electric-powered bicycles—sleek, resilient, and crafted for the rugged realities of the continent’s diverse landscapes—are reimagining last-mile delivery. These are not mere vehicles but instruments of change, tackling South Africa’s youth unemployment crisis and the lack of infrastructure in informal townships with ingenuity and purpose.

Stroom’s mission cuts deeper than mobility. In a nation grappling with staggering unemployment, our locally manufactured bikes spark economic hope, creating jobs and empowering youth and women in underserved communities. Each bike is a lifeline, enabling micro-enterprises to thrive in informal townships where crumbling infrastructure and narrow lanes stifle traditional logistics.

IoT-enabled and paired with intuitive logistics software, Stroom’s bikes require minimal training, making them accessible to a workforce eager for opportunity. A completed CO2 life cycle study on the FrontRunner affirms our commitment to sustainability, offering a zero-emission alternative that’s as cost-effective as it is transformative.

As Stroom expands its vision beyond South Africa, reaching into global markets like the EU and UK, our e-cargo bikes stand as a beacon of innovation. We address not only the practical challenges of urban congestion and township inaccessibility but also the broader human struggle for economic dignity and environmental balance.

In the face of South Africa’s challenges, Stroom’s bikes are more than a solution—they are a movement, pedalling toward a future where sustainable mobility and community empowerment converge to reshape the continent’s urban and rural landscapes.
