Fueling Kano’s Hustle: Inside the Launch of BloomFuel Service
By bloomdata February 06, 2025
On February 1, 2025, BloomData Limited officially launched its flagship initiative, the BloomFuel Service, in the heart of Kano. Designed to address the urgent fuel affordability crisis facing small business owners, artisans, and daily wage earners, BloomFuel is more than just a service—it’s a social impact solution built for the people who power Nigeria’s informal economy.
With the rising cost of petrol hitting low-income earners the hardest, many hardworking citizens have struggled to keep their operations running. BloomFuel was born to change that narrative.
What Is BloomFuel?
BloomFuel is a fuel-on-credit system that allows users—particularly commercial tricycle and motorcycle riders, small-scale traders, and artisans—to access petrol when they need it and repay later. This flexible lending model ensures that economic activity doesn’t have to stop just because of fuel shortages or cash flow constraints.
The launch in Kano, held at the Kano State Library on Ahmadu Bello Way, brought together key stakeholders, community leaders, and representatives from trade associations—most notably the National Commercial Tricycle and Motorcycle Owners and Riders Association (NACTOMORAS), our primary partner in delivering this solution to the grassroots
Why Kano?
Kano is not just one of Nigeria’s largest commercial hubs—it’s also a city fueled (literally) by the energy of its people. Thousands rely on daily earnings to survive and support their families. These are the real MVPs of our economy, and BloomFuel is built with them in mind.
By launching in Kano first, we’re setting the tone for what’s possible when innovation meets impact.
