It was a decade ago that ride hailing was introduced in Pakistan. A relatively new concept of commuting was introduced which has changed the way people traveled. Beating the conventional yellow taxi and rickshaw monopoly, Careem had entered the market with a bang and introduced the concept of fair pricing for both commuters and drivers.
Over the years, Careem established itself as one of Pakistan’s most reliable and convenient ride-hailing services. While ensuring a seamless experience for customers, Careem majorly prioritized its Captains by treating them as a pivotal part of the equation that completed the deal. Not only did they offer numerous benefits to their Captains, they redefined driving as not just a job but a respectable and rewarding career.
