Founded in 2019, Airlift is on a mission to build a world of self-empowerment using technology-backed logistics solutions that enable safe, reliable and affordable access to necessities. Airlift scaled Pakistans largest decentralized transportation network to change the way people move, shifting away from private vehicles towards shared mobility and affordable mass transport. In 2020, Airlift diversified into last-mile delivery through Airlift Express, delivering essentials across households in 30 minutes across nine cities in Pakistan, soon launching across South Africa. Airlift Express spans across food supplies, household supplies, pharmacy, stationery, pet food, fresh fruits and vegetables, small electronics and more. On this mission to enable self-empowerment in the region, Airlift raised $110m+ USD in venture financing.
