Stulo Technologies (Pty) Ltd is a tech company that was founded in September 2019. Our main purpose is to connect individuals and businesses via technology and delivery services. We currently offer a delivery app that enables individuals to order Groceries and other items that are on offer.

Stulo is an app that allows individuals to order items from their favourite grocery stores and pharmacies for delivery. The app is available on Android Play Store and is soon to be available on the iOS App Store.

Stulo was founded in September 2019 by Kabelo Shikwane and Mandisa Mjamba. Since then Stulo has developed two apps. Our first apps’ progress was hindered by Covid-19. Due to this an opportunity, we were allowed to speed up our plans, which was to offer customers a platform in which they can order items from their favourite grocery and pharmacy stores, for delivery.

Stulo has not yet officially launched but has been running a fully operational beta since 18 May 2020.

Once the restaurant receives your order, they’ll get to work preparing your food and then carefully package it. Once its ready a Stulo Runner will safely pick it up and deliver it safely to your home. (either contact free or hand to hand exchange). All our drivers have sanitizers, masks and surgical gloves at all times.

Pharmacy and grocery stores are listed. Watch out for news on new stores added our social media platforms.

You will be able to order at any time. Orders made after 3pm will only be delivered the next day. You will also be able to select a time slot that suits you. 30mins before your timeslot we will notify you, and our runners will WhatsApp you when she/he is on the way.

We do not accept cash payments for safety purposes. We believe runners’ not carrying cash will ensure their safety and reduce the risk of theft. We also believe cash is unhygienic and could help spread the Virus. Therefore we have opted against cash payments. Welcome to the 21st century.

You are not entitled to give a tip, but we would highly appreciate it if you help our runners receive more revenue. These are tough times and they have people to take care of. Being Stingy isn’t cool!

You may only order via our app if you are ordering 5 items or more.

Of course you can! Just select a timeslot and date suitable for you!

No. We only offer delivery.

As long as the runner has not purchased your items at the retail store you are able to cancel order.

We have a dedicated team that looks after your entire STULO experience, from the moment you place an order right through to it arriving to you.

However, we do understand that sometimes things might go wrong. If this is the case, you can use the Help function in the Stulo app to speak to our customer service team and report any issues. We do have vouchers specifically for returns that can be issued.

You can contact our Customer Service team via the Help function in the app and we’ll do our best to make sure the runner adds it to your chosen items. This must be done before the runner has commenced buying the items.

If you think you won’t be at the delivery address in time to receive your order, please let us know by using the Help function in the Stulo App. To check where you are, your runner might call you using his own cell phone number or via WhatsApp to make things move quickly. You may also ask someone to receive the order provided you have given the name of the person receiving the order.

You can invite friends by sharing the app via your profile.

We are rapidly expanding and will hopefully be working with stores near you soon!

We will offer company accounts in the foreseeable future.

Our absolute priority is to offer the safest service possible to customers, runners, grocery stores, pharmacies. We have taken a number of important actions to ensure groceries or items from pharmacies are safely collected for everyone. For example, we have introduced contact-free delivery. We are in daily contact with local gov health officials to make sure we are offering customers, grocery stores, pharmacy stores and runners the most up-to-date guidance and safest service possible. We realise this is a concerning period for everyone and want to assure you that safety is our priority during and beyond this unprecedented time. Keep safe. Stay home.

Runners will be asked to let the customer know they have arrived, place the order outside their door, step a safe distance back and wait nearby for the customer to collect the food before the order can be completed. Runners are also able to make orders contact-less if they wish by letting customers know through the app before they arrive.

South African government has announced that all restaurants, bars and cafes must shut to dine in customers, but delivery can remain open. If a restaurant would like to keep their kitchens open to delivery customers, they can still do so via Stulo but this is the choice of the restaurant.

Since the outbreak of COVID-19 we have:

• Up-to-date guidance: Extensive hygiene guidance and updates are available on the runner website. Our runners will also be given masks, gloves and hand sanitizer to ensure they are protected.
• STULO runner Support Fund: If a runner who regularly works with Stulo does experience symptoms of COVID-19 or is told to self-isolate by a medical authority, they will be immediately put on leave. protected.
• UContact-free delivery: We’ve introduced contact free delivery in Johannesburg and Cape Town which means runners can work without coming into direct contact with customers. protected.

We are here to deliver for pharmacies and grocery stores who want to carry on offering their items to families at home during this difficult time. We are working to optimise operations for delivery grocery stores and pharmacies, and we are doing everything we can to make sure people still have access to the essentials they want and need.

We have:

• A platform on which businesses can apply to be on the Stulo Platform, or they can simply whatsapp us.
• Established teams of people across the business to recruit and support restaurants who want to be able to deliver food. (Runners)
