JV-owned
Capital sits on MOBIGRID's own books — funded by the JV partners and early investor rounds. We keep the full operating margin, and we carry the full asset risk.
How the business is built — revenue and ownership
Drive, Charge, Works, OS and Academy aren't just service lines — see Services for what each one does. Here's what each one earns, and why the fleet itself doesn't have to sit on one balance sheet.
Every lease, lease-to-own agreement and fleet-as-a-service contract — the vehicle earns whether a driver, a corporate or an institution is paying for it.
Our own fleet's energy, and everyone else's — the same hub sells depot charging to us and charging-as-a-service to hosts and the public.
Servicing, battery certification, parts and roadside recovery — priced the same whether or not the vehicle is ours.
Software, telematics and electrification advisory — sold as a platform, not bundled only into our own fleet's cost.
Technician certification and driver training — a cost centre everywhere else in the market becomes revenue here, because nobody else is training EV technicians in Nigeria.
Two ways to own the fleet
Running more than one ownership model on the same operating platform is how the fleet scales past what our own capital could fund alone.
Capital sits on MOBIGRID's own books — funded by the JV partners and early investor rounds. We keep the full operating margin, and we carry the full asset risk.
Capital sits on an investor's or a corporate customer's balance sheet instead. MOBIGRID still runs the vehicle end to end — we keep the operating margin and a management fee, without the capital.
The mix, not either model alone, is the scaling mechanism. It's what lets the fleet grow faster than JV capital by itself would allow — later phases move progressively more of the marginal vehicle onto investor and corporate books, without changing who operates it or how it's maintained.
Who pays, and for what
Lease and lease-to-own, priced against what they'd otherwise pay to rent and fuel a petrol vehicle — see Economics for the arithmetic.
Embassies, missions, corporates and government — fleet-as-a-service against a contracted availability SLA, not a car sale.
Charging-as-a-service host sites, energy partners, and workshop or parts supply relationships — see Charging Stations.
