Johannesburg, South Africa – Date — The Top 16 Youth-Owned Brands Awards (YOBAs) is excited to announce that Delivery Ka Speed, one of South Africa’s most dynamic township-based logistics brands, has come on board as a sponsor for the 2025 edition. Known for disrupting the local delivery space with speed, service, and street-savvy strategy, the brand now turns its focus to supporting fellow youth-owned brands as part of its growing impact beyond logistics.
Once a celebrated winner on the YOBA stage, the proudly South African logistics and delivery brand returns — this time not to receive recognition, but to give it.
Founded by visionary entrepreneur Godiragetse Fareed Mogajane, Delivery Ka Speed has emerged as one of South Africa’s fastest-growing township-based courier services. Their journey from a youth-owned startup to a thriving enterprise — and now YOBA sponsor — is a powerful example of how young entrepreneurs are building the future of business in South Africa, one delivery at a time.
“We’re thrilled to have Delivery Ka Speed return to the YOBAs in this new capacity,” says Pat Mahlangu, Founder and CEO of the awards. “Their story is exactly why this platform exists — to spotlight brands doing incredible work, and to inspire others to build their own.”
As a former YOBA winner, Delivery Ka Speed understands first-hand the value of recognition and visibility. Their sponsorship reflects a sincere commitment to uplifting other youth-owned brands, particularly those operating in underserved communities and emerging markets.
“What began as a humble township delivery startup has grown into a full-scale logistics enterprise — and now, through our sponsorship of YOBAs, we’re proud to turn the spotlight on the next generation of youth-owned brands.” – Godiragetse Fareed Mogajane, Founder & CEO of Delivery Ka Speed.
The 2025 Top 16 Youth-Owned Brands Awards will take place on Saturday, 21 June 2025 at 18:00 in Sandton, Johannesburg, recognising South Africa’s most impactful youth-owned brands across 16 categories.
