Careem wants to simplify and improve the lives of people in this region and provide safe, reliable and affordable charging solutions for consumers and businesses is an important part of that mission. We are pleased to partner with Unilever to provide an on-demand transport solution, as a valued customer for Careem for Business. “We look forward to a long-term relationship as both companies strive to create an efficient freight market.

The application will allow meeting the transport requirements of partner organizations, such as Unilever, through any available provider, saving time and costs. This will also create the opportunity for corporate entities to use suppliers that are not currently registered with them.

Insia Adnan, Head of Logistics and Distribution, Unilever, said;

A flexible and responsive supply chain is the key to winning in today’s market and a partnership with Careem gives us a competitive advantage in both areas.
