About

Rider is building modern parcel delivery for online sellers in Pakistan. We are doing $130K in monthly revenue, delivering 200K orders per month across 60 cities. Unlike traditional logistics players, Rider’s solution is: Easier to use (integration with shipper portals, delivery agent app, end- customer app); Quicker (route optimization, next day deliveries, 24-hour cash repayment); Transparent (resolves ‘fake attempt’ deliveries, offers live tracking) and Flexible (shipper and customer control on delivery location and times).

Ex banker with parcel anxiety. I worked for 5 years at Citi Bank, across Sub Sahara and Africa, as AVP of African Equities. Following my MBA, I pivoted into logistics, as Head of Business Development and Strategy for UPS Pakistan, where I got a front row seat to supply chain bottlenecks in frontier and emerging markets. Frustrated by e-commerce fulfilment and traditional last mile companies, I founded Rider in 2019.
