Building the mobility
of tomorrow, in Senegal
Born in Dakar, Tukkijamm is West Africa's first professional carpooling solution. We connect employees, reduce traffic, and build sustainable mobility for everyone.
Making Dakar a city where commuting is a pleasure
“We experienced the Corniche traffic jams like millions of Dakar residents. Tukkijamm is the solution we wished we had.”
— The founders of Tukkijamm
Every day, thousands of Dakar residents spend hours in traffic jams getting to work. The human, economic, and environmental cost is considerable. Tukkijamm provides a concrete, simple, and immediate solution: connecting colleagues to share their daily commutes.
Record congestion in Dakar
Dakar ranks among the most congested cities in sub-Saharan Africa. An employee loses an average of 40 hours a year in traffic jams.
Rising transport costs
A Dakar employee's transport budget can represent up to 30% of their monthly salary — a direct burden on purchasing power.
Urban climate emergency
Corporate transport accounts for 40% of urban CO₂ emissions in Senegal. Every car removed from the road is a concrete environmental win.
From idea to impact
Birth of Tukkijamm
Two Dakar entrepreneurs, tired of daily Corniche traffic jams, envisioned a carpooling solution designed for Senegalese companies.
App launch
iOS and Android versions go live. The first 500 users joined the platform in less than a month after launch.
First institutional partners
First agreements signed with DER and ADEPME. Tukkijamm joins the Scale-Up Senegal program dedicated to high-potential startups.
5,000 active users milestone
The community surpasses 5,000 active members in Dakar, Thiès and Saint-Louis. Over 25 partner companies join the platform.
Strategic alliance with SG Senegal
Tukkijamm becomes the official mobility partner of Société Générale Sénégal for all 800 of its employees across 3 sites.
2,500 trips published, 1,850 employees registered
New milestone reached: 2,500 trips published on the platform, 1,850 employees registered, and 12 tonnes of CO₂ avoided since launch.
Our values
Trust
Every user is verified — ID, driver's license, professional email. You carpool only with trusted people.
Environmental impact
Every shared trip is one fewer car on Dakar's roads. Our mission is measurable: CO₂ avoided, traffic reduced, air quality improved.
African innovation
We build for Dakar, not for Paris. Our matching algorithm is calibrated to Senegalese traffic realities and local habits.
Community
Tukkijamm creates lasting connections. Thousands of colleagues who would never have met carpool together and strengthen their team bonds.
