Dele was born out of frustration with the fragmented digital experience in Lagos. In 2023, our founders were juggling multiple apps for daily tasks: one for rides, another for payments, and several more for news and information.
They asked a simple question: "What if we could build one app that does it all, and does it better?" The answer became Dele — Nigeria's first true SuperApp designed specifically for the unique needs of Lagos residents.
Starting with just a small team of 5 developers working from a shared office in Yaba, Dele has grown to serve over 50,000 active users in just three years. Our mission remains constant: to simplify urban living through technology that works for everyone.
The name "Dele" itself means "to come home" in Yoruba, reflecting our commitment to creating a digital home for all your daily needs.
