Glovo Uganda has celebrated the exceptional contributions of its top-performing freelance riders with a special ‘Rider Family Day’ event held in Kampala.
The occasion recognised riders who have achieved outstanding milestones, including delivering the highest number of eco-friendly green orders and earning accolades such as Best Partner Rider.
The celebration extended to the families of the riders, with Glovo acknowledging their crucial role in supporting the riders’ success.
Riders attended the event alongside their spouses and children, emphasising the importance of family encouragement in achieving professional excellence.
“This event was an opportunity to not only celebrate hardworking riders but also to acknowledge the pivotal role their families play in their achievements,” said Ivy Maingi, General Manager of Glovo Uganda. “Their support and understanding are invaluable, and we are deeply grateful for their contributions.”
As part of the festivities, riders received shopping hampers in appreciation of their dedication to Glovo’s mission.
Outstanding performers were further recognised with special awards, including full sets of gas cylinders for their exceptional service.
One of the awardees, Tadeo Ntegeka, who delivered the highest number of green orders using an electric motorbike, expressed his gratitude.
“I am truly honoured to receive this recognition. Working with Glovo has been a fulfilling journey, not just because I get to contribute to sustainability but also due to the unwavering support from the company. This award inspires me to continue delivering my best every day,” Ntegeka said.
The event also included a financial literacy and entrepreneurship training session, facilitated by Stephen Kaganda from Lendass, which equipped riders and their families with essential skills to improve financial management and explore business opportunities.
Glovo Uganda reaffirmed its commitment to supporting riders and their families through initiatives like this event, which highlighted the company’s dedication to promoting skills development, sustainability, and rider empowerment.
