Nigerian mobility startup Moove is making significant strides in its expansion into the U.S. market, with a strong focus on electric vehicles and sustainable growth. Since August 2024, the company has been actively listing job vacancies in Los Angeles and throughout California, signaling its commitment to establishing a presence in the region [3ea5d153]. Moove aims to achieve profitability by 2025, building on its success in other markets [3ea5d153].
In March 2024, Moove secured $100 million in funding from notable investors, including Uber, Future Africa, and Dubai’s The Latest Ventures, which will support its ambitious growth plans [3ea5d153]. The company's innovative model allows drivers to gradually own their vehicles, creating a sustainable pathway for mobility [3ea5d153]. Currently, Moove operates in Nigeria, South Africa, the UAE, and the U.K., and it plans to enter six additional countries by 2025 [3ea5d153].
Moove's U.S. expansion strategy may mirror its successful entry into the UAE in 2023, where it launched an all-electric fleet, showcasing its commitment to sustainability and innovation in the mobility sector [3ea5d153]. As the company navigates this new market, it aims to leverage its existing operational models and partnerships to establish a foothold in the competitive U.S. electric vehicle landscape [3ea5d153].
