world-class operators

Here is our history.
How it all are started
At the age of just 16, Tono Mandly Co-Founder and CEO had already sold his first ecomm business in Europe. He spent the next years of his life in China sourcing for global companies before landing in Latin America. He fell in love with the region while expanding Grin Scooters to 10 countries and 30 cities in a year. Years later, destiny (a.k.a Grin Scooters) played its part by bringing together this trifecta, as they led the company’s finance, expansion and operations.
Meanwhile, on the other side..
Ivan Amelong and Fede Naides, both Argentinians, were making history as they spearheaded the Opps & Finance departments at Dafiti: one of Rocket Internet's largest e-commerce companies at the time.
The big moment
Years later, destiny (a.k.a Grin Scooters) played its part by bringing together this trifecta, as they led the company’s expansion plan, conquering 10 countries and 30 cities across Latin America in just one year.
The rest is history
After going through victories and hardships together, it was only a matter of time before they knew they would come a long way together as they decided to embark on a mission: bringing certainty to the +500M Latin Americans gaining access to e-commerce.
