If you want to stay out of a cube (as much as possible) you should get in to operations/engineering.

You need a good freight forwarded on both ends, probably a separate freight forwarder in the US and a local well regarded party in Africa. Plus, you're going transborder in Africa which is always a delightful experience.mcsuede posted:An asset-based 3PL for warehousing and fulfillment. The company is great at big contract orders, truckload and LTL, but needs help scaling for ecommerce small parcel. This poo poo is like 101 level so any idiot can do it but if you're going 100% parcel fulfillment I would consider actual parcel carriers. I imagine if you are doing small orders that you want shared space, which is also well managed by parcel carriers.

More jockeys only mean more maintenance if the new jockey is equally maintenance intensive. Electrics are pretty simple. Certainly more capex and depreciation, though. For a jockey the best model is probably swappable batteries like on forklifts.

You would get pretty decent regen as well. Hybrids at least perform much better in cities. The beauty of electrics is that you reduce the number of actual components to like, mid hundreds rather than mid thousands, and there are only a few that are actually moving and subject to stress. Plus, as you say, you'd get a lot of benefit from modularity in your whole M&R process and supply chain.
