Underserved corridor
South Africa and the DRC share deep trade, mining and diaspora ties, yet direct capacity between the two markets is thin and fares are high. Demand exists before a single marketing rand is spent.
Investors
Invest in the launch of Bosolo Airways
We are engaging strategic investment partners to take Bosolo Airways from a registered company with a complete plan to a certified airline flying the South Africa–DR Congo corridor.
The opportunity
Bosolo Airways has not yet started operations. That is precisely the point: partners joining now help shape the fleet, the network and the governance of a carrier entering one of Africa's most persistently underserved corridors — and participate from the founding capital structure rather than a later, more expensive round.
Bosolo Airways recherche des partenaires d'investissement stratégiques pour financer l'acquisition de la flotte, la certification et le lancement des opérations.
Dual revenue engine
Passenger yields and cargo yields on the same rotation. Cargo demand on this corridor is structural — mining spares north, produce and minerals south — which smooths seasonality.
Local credibility
A South African registered company with Congolese identity and relationships on both ends of the route: regulators, ground handlers, freight forwarders and community networks.
Disciplined launch plan
One aircraft type, one proven trunk route, conservative load-factor assumptions and staged expansion only after the launch route performs.
Use of funds
Aircraft acquisition & lease deposits
Securing the launch fleet and maintenance reserves.
Certification & regulatory
Air Services Licence, AOC process, manuals, audits and legal costs.
Crew & training
Recruitment, type-rating and recurrent training for flight and cabin crew.
Systems & distribution
Reservations, departure control, revenue accounting and GDS/IATA participation.
Working capital
Ground handling, fuel, insurance and operating reserve through the ramp-up period.
Brand & market entry
Launch marketing across South Africa, the DRC and the diaspora.
