“The vision for DC and Careem is similar I believe — empowering our customers — and we both have enjoyed taking risks to do so”

So we are getting green signals from this move that Careem is now going to get into delivery business as well. For this purpose the company is going to use its Bike service, which is launched recently. Careem has made a big name in industry since its inception but it  will also get benefits from Delivery Chacha’s background to run its new delivery business.

It has observed that Careem loves to do experiments and get into different fields just like it launched Rishta Autni campaign loved by youngsters. Unlike Uber that is only focusing in its core area of expertise, Careem wants to bring something new other than its own expertise. The company is reportedly working on range of things. Now in the city, the delivery service could be one of them.
