Expressing his views on these developments, Feroz Jaleel, Country Head, Careem Pakistan, stated, “Inflation has impacted almost all aspects of businesses across the country, and it’s being felt at all levels. Captains are at the heart of what we do at Careem, and we are continuously working on facilitating the heroes who enable us to move between destinations across Pakistan. In persistence with our previous efforts, the current partnerships will certainly aid our Captains in their everyday lives.”

Coming from the same background, Krave Mart understands the importance of a supportive ecosystem. We see gig workers as one community and would want to extend our “all in” support to them no matter which company they are currently associated with. In these tough times, a relief in grocery buying would be a massive plus”, stated Haziq Ahmed, Cofounder and COO, Krave Mart.
