SeamlessHR, Africa’s leading HR and payroll software company,
alongside three Ghanaian companies have been named amongst the fastest-growing
African companies by the Financial Times, one of the world’s leading business
news organisations.
The Financial Times ranking of Africa’s Fastest-Growing Companies in
2024 was compiled in collaboration with Statista, a global data and business
intelligence platform. The list ranks independent African companies by their
organic, internally stimulated compound annual growth rate in revenue for the
period reviewed.
SeamlessHR’s absolute growth rates of 700.66percent and 100.06percent
compound annual growth rate ranked it ahead of hundreds of leading companies
from diverse industries such as technology, telecoms, manufacturing, financial
services, and healthcare.
Commenting on the recognition, Dr. Emmanuel Okeleji, CEO and
co-founder of SeamlessHR, said: "We
are thrilled to be recognised by the Financial Times as one of Africa’s
fastest-growing companies. Our inclusion in this prestigious list reflects our
sustained growth trajectory, fueled by a relentless pursuit of excellence,

“We remain committed to building homegrown
solutions that help these institutions thrive, and working people in Africa
enjoy a better life, shaping the future of the workforce in the continent,” he added.
In 2023, the organisation facilitated payroll processing totalling
$300 million for various African businesses, cementing its position as a
trusted ally in its quest for success.
