Bolt Food Ghana has announced a series of partnerships with leading grocery and retail outlets as it marks its fifth year of operations in the country, reinforcing its position as one of Ghana’s fastest-growing on-demand platforms.
The company confirmed that it has signed agreements with all major retail and grocery brands, including Melcom, Maxmart, Fairway, Palace, Sneda, and Kwikmart. The expansion also extends beyond groceries, with electronics chain Telefonika, pharmacies, pet care outlets, flower shops, frozen food distributors, and alcohol retailers now featured on the Bolt Food platform.
According to Bolt Food, the move reflects both a response to shifting consumer demand and a long-term strategy to diversify its services beyond food delivery. The company believes this step positions the app as a comprehensive convenience platform, offering customers access to everyday essentials on one trusted digital channel.
“This milestone shows how far we’ve come since announcing our entry into the grocery and retail space last year. By bringing Ghana’s leading retail and grocery brands onto the platform, we’re proving that Bolt Food is more than a food delivery app. It's becoming the go-to platform for everyday essentials,” said Ali Zaryab, General Manager of Bolt Food Ghana.
He added that the expansion also benefits local businesses and couriers. “Customers increasingly want one trusted platform that gives them access to everything they need, while retailers are seeking digital channels to reach more households. Our partnerships with major brands mark a strong step forward in reshaping convenience in Ghana and creating more opportunities for businesses and couriers alike.”
The company stated that the expansion would empower its ecosystem by generating wider earning opportunities for couriers and enabling both small and large businesses to reach new customers through Bolt Food’s platform.
As part of its growth plans, Bolt Food says it will continue to invest in strategic partnerships, technology upgrades, and new retail categories, with the aim of becoming Ghana’s most reliable on-demand services platform.
Globally, Bolt operates in over 50 countries and 600 cities, serving more than 200 million lifetime customers. Its services include ride-hailing, e-bike and scooter rentals, car rentals, corporate mobility, as well as food and grocery delivery.
