M-Kula is completely digital voucher that gives employers the opportunity to feed their teams without having to set up a canteen or deal with an outsourced caterer.

It is easy to use, and makes employee feeding transparent and efficient. It also ensures that employees have money for lunch throughout the month and that they use their lunch money specifically for food.

Apptivate Africa Corporate Relations Manager Irene Kioko dedicated the award to more than 300 food joints signed up on M-Kula , clients and food lovers in the region.

“We have always taken a user-focused approach in building disruptive solutions for Africa. It was great to see out efforts recognized at such a prestigious stage,” Kioko said.

The company also runs M- tuza, a multi-store digital voucher that can be redeemed at over 200 locations.
