World Moto Signs MOU for New Moto-Meter(TM) Distributor in Rwanda

/EINPresswire.com/ -- NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 02/01/16 -- World Moto, Inc. (OTC: FARE) (BERLIN: WM7) (BERLIN: A1J8SY) ("World Moto" or the "Company"), a leader in advanced solutions for motorcycle taxis and on-demand transport, today announced that it has signed a memorandum of understanding with a distributor in Rwanda.

The MOU authorizes the Rwandan distributor to immediately begin marketing the Moto-Meter™ in the assigned territory as an authorized partner of World Moto, and allows him to purchase the Moto-Meter™ at a specified price, with preferred lead times for orders of initial stock. World Moto has established Memorandums of Understanding as the preferred form of contract between the Company and distributors rather than more formal instruments in order to expedite agreements and offer flexibility to the distributor in establishing juristic entities and negotiating investment.

Motorcycle taxis are a favored form of transport in Rwanda, where public buses are unreliable and automobile taxis are expensive and much slower. It is anticipated that Rwandan Moto-Meter™ sales will begin in the capital city of Kigali, where the drivers operate under tight government regulation and have a close relationship to the state security apparatus. Motorcycle taxis in Kigali have often been used as an extension of the policing system to track down criminals and suspects, and the Moto-Meter™ is expected to allow the state to continue this tradition using more modern technologies.

Paul Giles, CEO of World Moto, stated, "There has been a continuing increase in sales inquiries from operators around the world as well as requests from distributors looking to service growing demand. It's important to note that these requests have all been unsolicited. And now that the Company has sufficient financial resources to launch sales promotion campaigns, we are more confident than ever that the Moto-Meter™ market is poised to enter a time of rapid expansion."
