Live Tracking
Watch every delivery, live
Once a driver accepts a run, the map updates in real time — first the route to pickup, then a new route to drop-off the moment the driver confirms pickup, Uber-style.
- Real GPS tracking from pickup all the way to drop-off
- Instant notifications for the farmer, buyer, and driver at every step
- Driver confirms pickup, and the map redirects to the drop-off automatically
- Works in remote areas too — locations queue offline and sync once reconnected

The basics of how Kenu works for farmers, buyers and drivers.
Who uses Kenu?

Is there an iPhone app?
Not yet. The Android app can be downloaded directly now, and the iPhone version is coming soon.
What Kenu means to people
We asked people what comes to mind when they hear the name Kenu. These are their answers, in their own words.
Swipe, drag, or use the arrows to browse. Click the message in the middle to react.
- When you hear the name ‘KENU’, what is the first thing that comes to mind, and what does it mean to you?
- Kenu means ‘canoe’. It means voyage to me — a way of bringing one place closer to another. It signifies the creativity and resilience of the people as a means of transportation. There is also a story behind how the canoe is made — where the materials come from, who made it, how long it took and how many people it could carry. When you sit in the canoe and travel, it is a voyage of its own. It’s a journey of its own.
- In one word, KENU for me is CONNECTION. Proven and tested and always triumphant, Kenu connects people. It connects cultures, beliefs, stories, economies, lives, experiences, relationships, families, technologies — everything that we hold dear as humans and as ni-Vanuatu. Kenu is the physical manifestation of all of those.
- Canoe 🛶 — Exploring.
- When I look at Kenu, I think about fishing. To me, Kenu is transport for moving around and looking for food, the way our grandparents did before there were boats in the village.
- I think of a canoe 🛶 and how our ancestors used it to travel from one place to another.
- Lelepa. To me it means a means of transport that makes life easy.
- I think of ‘canoe’ and it means traveling, journey, seafaring and a course to a destination.
- The first thing that came to my mind is canoe 😁 And a canoe for me means a journey.
- When I first saw KENU, I read it as canoe in Bislama. In the Pacific, a canoe is a means of transportation. Our Pacific ancestors were great voyagers who used canoes to navigate across vast oceans in search of new places and destinations. But it also has a much deeper meaning. KENU represents a journey — navigating through different waters with a purpose. Sometimes the waters may be calm and sometimes the seas may be rough, but you keep navigating, overcoming challenges and moving forward until you reach your destination.
- Kenu is first of all a means of transport. Before we had vehicles, fibreglass and aluminium boats, it was the Kenu that took us from one place to another. It was also used for fishing and therefore feeding the family. Since it is something we build ourselves, it should also represent pride. Canoes were carved without machines. We also used Kenu for exchange and trade — taking something somewhere to trade and coming back with something else. The fact that you use it for this app is genius, since the people using it will also be exchanging.
- When I think of the canoe 🛶, I think of the sea and how, in the days before modern boats and ships, it was a means of transportation between islands and across shorter distances. For me it symbolizes voyage — leaving a place to go to another, trusting that this ancient vessel will take me to places across the big sea. I also see it as a connection to the past, that my ancestors used it and it is still useful today.
- To me it means transport, ocean, island life, communication, tradition, culture and identity.
- First of all, when I hear this name, Kenu gives me great joy and happiness. I will have a big chance to go fishing, and to experience the customary way of crossing over to the mainland. In Lelepa, in the old days you had to have a Kenu, so everybody had to have one. If you didn't have one, your life would be very hard.
- A canoe 🙂 — vital transport we used as kids to get water from Efate to Lelepa. Transport from Efate to Lelepa to harvest food and bring it back home.
- Kenu to me means our traditional way of moving from one point to another — our source of connection. Kenu is more than just a boat. It is our identity, our culture and traditions, a pure demonstration of resilience in the Pacific.
- A canoe. A mode of transport, a vessel that joins and connects people and places. It carries people, food and water (resources), it facilitates trade and solidifies relationships. It is a conduit that isn't just the physical structure, but all that it symbolises. As a connector, it joins people, which is the very fabric of our people — relationships. Our Pacific is an ocean continent. We are voyagers that are connected by our Blue Pacific. And the canoe symbolises that bridge.
- A wooden island boat crafted beautifully with natural wood. It is a form of transport from back then, from one place to another, which carried significant importance in villages and islands. To me it means survival and transport. 🫂
- KENU — it’s unique and original.
