Gaingo

Gaingo is Zambia’s first and leading electric motorbike battery-swapping company, helping riders power their journeys with a fast, affordable alternative to petrol. Its network lets customers exchange a depleted battery for a fully charged one in under two minutes, reducing downtime and keeping motorbikes on the road. Gaingo serves entrepreneurs and delivery riders, including taxi operators and food delivery businesses, and says its solution can save riders up to 70% compared with petrol.

The company offers electric motorbikes designed for Zambian roads, alongside battery-swapping stations, maintenance packages, and customer support. Its service is intended for both city deliveries and rural routes, with a growing station network and support available around the clock. Gaingo also develops the technology behind its charging and swapping infrastructure, including IoT systems and smart charging stations. By providing zero-emission transport and reliable access to charged batteries, Gaingo aims to make electric mobility more accessible across Zambia and contribute to the country’s clean energy transition.
