About Tunl

TUNL is the new way to reach international customers

TUNL is solving exports for African ecommerce brands. Amazing, innovative and beautiful products are made across South Africa, Africa and other emerging markets, and TUNL is breaking down borders for these businesses. Our proprietary courier service is hands down the most affordable way to send parcels to major global destinations like the USA, EU and UK.

We are shipping for 1200+ merchants from all corners of South Africa. Our goal is to 10x this by the end of the year and start piloting in another origin market. We are currently a team of eight supercharged Tunlrs, with a “TUNL vision” of using innovative technology to radically change the way businesses sell and ship internationally 🌎🌍🌏.

TUNL is backed by Founders Factory Africa (in partnership with Standard Bank) and Digital Africa Ventures. We were highlighted as one of 30 startups “shaping the future of Africa” by the Yale Africa Startup Review 2022, and were recently selected as top ten finalists in the Stitch X RABA 2023 Startup Showcase.

Our Culture

We are a sporty/competitive bunch. Join the team for runs, hikes, padel/tennis, bouldering or cold water swims. If you are a gamer, let’s all get extremely frustrated playing Overcooked or take on the reigning champions of the office at Tekken.
