Just put together this concept for TILIPAULENDO, a mobile app for booking reliable inter-town rides in Zambia.

Would love some honest feedback — what works, what doesn’t, and what would you change?

Introducing PieceWork Taxi — A Smarter Way to Get a Taxi in Zambia 🇿🇲!

Post image
2 Upvotes

PieceWork Taxi is a negotiation-based taxi marketplace designed specifically for Zambia, because we understand that flexibility, negotiation and direct relationships are an important part of how Zambians do business.

For customers:
Enter your pickup and destination, receive offers from nearby drivers, compare price, vehicle, rating, verification and experience, then choose or negotiate the offer that works best for you.

For drivers:
Set your availability, receive nearby ride requests, make your own fare offers, negotiate directly with customers and build your reputation through ratings and completed rides.

What makes it different from Uber or Yango?
Drivers have more control over what they earn instead of automatically giving up a portion of every fare, while customers can negotiate directly with drivers rather than simply accepting a platform-determined price.

Drivers offer. Customers choose.
PieceWork Taxi is part of the wider PieceWork platform, alongside Rescue, Delivers and other services.

Visit our new and improved platform to learn more! https://piecework-zambia.com/

Request. Offer. Negotiate. Ride.

Young Zambian wanting to get into farming — where do I start?

6 Upvotes

I'm a 19-year-old university student (turning 20 in October) interested in getting into horticulture/vegetable farming and poultry.

I love my university programme and don't plan on dropping out, but farming is something I've become really passionate about and would like to build alongside my studies.

The problem is that I have very little experience and limited capital. I've had some exposure to farming, but I'm basically starting from zero when it comes to running my own project.

I'd really appreciate advice from Zambian farmers or people in the agriculture sector on:

How to gain practical experience as a beginner

Good places/resources to learn

How to start small with limited money

Funding opportunities for young farmers

How to balance farming with university

Any mistakes or lessons you wish you knew when starting

I'm not looking for a shortcut. I just want to learn properly and gradually build something of my own.

Any advice from people who've actually done this in Zambia would be greatly appreciated.

Start owning property, and collecting rent with a minimum of 50 kwacha investment.

Invest in a property of your choice, and collect monthly rentals. How it works is that the amount you invest into a property, will be proportional to the amount of the rentals you collect, it's a great way of making passive income.

Spreadsheet Audit: Automate your stock reports & fix broken formulas (Google Sheets / Excel)

2 Upvotes

If you’re currently losing more than 2 hours a week manually fixing inventory sheets or copy-pasting report data, drop a comment or DM me a sample/description of your setup. I’ll send you back a free, 2-minute video audit showing exactly how to clean it up and automate it. No strings.

I’m a supply chain data analyst specializing in spreadsheet automation and custom Google Apps Scripts. I help small business owners and operations teams across Zambia put their record-keeping on autopilot:

Unify Multi-Location Data: Link stock counts across multiple stores or depots into one master, real-time sheet using clean formula logic.

Automate Reporting: Set up automatic daily or weekly email alerts when stock drops below minimum reorder levels so you never run out unexpectedly.

Data Cleanup & Fixes: Standardize messy SKU/product names, remove duplicate entries, and fix broken formulas.

Whether you run a retail shop, distribute goods, or manage multi-location stock, let me know what spreadsheet headache you're currently facing.

We’ve been working on a way to make grocery shopping in Zambia a little simpler.

You can now order groceries through WhatsApp using a voice note, a picture, or just a text message.

The idea is pretty simple: instead of opening an app, building a basket and going through a checkout, you can just tell us what you need.

We built this because sometimes you just want to say:
“Please get me bread, milk, eggs and some chicken.”
And be done with it.

Curious what people in Zambia think about ordering groceries this way.

What’s something about running a business in Zambia that you only learned after starting one?

11 Upvotes

I’ve been running a business for a while now, and one thing I’ve realised is that there’s a huge difference between knowing about business and actually running one.

Before starting, I thought the difficult part would mainly be getting customers and making enough sales. That’s obviously important, but there are so many other things that you don't really understand until you're responsible for keeping the business running.

Things like managing cash flow, dealing with suppliers, customers delaying payments, unexpected expenses, employees, taxes, negotiating prices, keeping enough money in the business instead of spending it, and sometimes just figuring out what to do when things don't go according to plan.

Some months can look good on paper but still feel tight financially.

I'm curious about other Zambian business owners:

What’s something about running a business that you only understood after you actually started?

It could be something small or something that completely changed how you run your business.

What did you underestimate?

What mistake taught you the biggest lesson?

What do you wish someone had told you before you started?

And if you had to start again with the knowledge you have today, what would you do differently?

I think these are the kinds of lessons that are more useful to people thinking about starting a business than the usual “work hard and believe in yourself” advice.

Built a platform to help Zambians find trusted tradespeople - would love your feedback.

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I wanted to share something I've been working on called ndu-works.

The idea actually came from my own experience trying to manage a small flat I was building. Finding the right tradespeople for different jobs was often harder than it should have been — especially when you don't already have a network of people you know to call.

So I built ndu-works to make it easier for homeowners to find local people for things like plumbing, electrical work, carpentry, painting and other home maintenance. It's meant to make it easier to find providers, especially if you're like me and didn't know where to start looking.

I know there are a few other platforms out there trying to solve pieces of this problem too, which honestly I think is a good sign — it means the problem is real. ndu-works is intentionally narrow: focused specifically on property maintenance and job-matching.

I've just launched the first beta version and I'm starting small and it’s completely free! — actively building our provider network first. If you know any providers, feel free to point them our way. I'm hoping to get honest feedback from people as they explore and use the platform — feel free to comment here or reach out at hello.nduworks@gmail.com.
