Kenya is at 0.05 online food orders per person per year. South Korea is at 20. That chart, from Caroline Mutuku's keynote at Glovo Kenya's Future of Commerce Summit yesterday is quite possibly the most useful thing I have seen on Kenyan digital commerce this year. A few more numbers from the keynote: 1/ GMV growing about 40% a year against order growth of 33%. The basket is getting bigger. 2/ Utawala up 135% year on year. Kikuyu and Kinoo up about 100%. Ruiru and Juja up about 85%. The growth is no longer just about Westlands. 3/ Fastest-growing searches, January 2026 to September 2026: baby products 48%, beauty 45%, small electronics 42%, large electronics 40%. Kenyans are even searching for fridges on a delivery app (Seriously, do Kenyans have peculiar habits as someone once remarked, or not?). 4/ Orders that start in ChatGPT or Claude convert at 41% against 33% in the app. 5/ 22% of urban Kenyans have downloaded Glovo. 7% have ordered. 6,000 vendors, 3,000+ riders, 600 jobs heading to 1,200 by end of 2027. 6/ Finally, for 2027: partner-funded new-customer incentives, and one new city by mid-year with two more to follow.
