The African startup Yassir present in Senegal has announced that it has raised 150 million dollars, or 98 billion 484 million CFA francs in financing for its expansion.

Yassir said in a statement that it raised $150 million in Series B funding. Indeed, it is an online “Marketplace” that offers on-demand services such as transportation, financial services, and food and grocery delivery. The statement said the investment was led by Bond, “one of the largest venture capital firms in Silicon Valley, with the participation of Y Combinator, the largest startup accelerator in the world.”

Several investors helped the startup raise these funds. These include DN Capital, Dorsal Capital, Quiet Capital, Stanford Alumni Ventures, and other existing and strategic investors. This structure was present in Dakar less than a year ago and has launched a last-mile transport and delivery service, then a meal delivery service.
