Beled Hawo (Somali: Beledxaawo or Buuloxaawo) is a business town in Gedo, Somalia.[1] Beledxaawo is a border town and business gateway to Kenya and Ethiopia. The town is also the business headquarters of Gedo Region.[citation needed]
Physical cash was reportedly "virtually obsolete" in the town by July 2025, creating a reliance on mobile money services.[2]
