April 19, 2021: Technology-driven delivery service company - iMile has officially launched in Egypt with operations in Cairo and Suez.

Dubai-based iMile delivers goods from ecommerce sellers in China to customers in the MENA region to serve the ecommerce marketplace of the future.

With the rise of e-commerce in Egypt, local companies are focused on developing strategies that enhance online trade. As a platform that offers high-quality first-mile, international mile and localised last-mile delivery services, iMile is well-positioned to support the burgeoning ecommerce landscape in the country, as per TradeArabia News Service.

The growth of Egypt’s e-commerce industry has been spurred by its rising population, its increasingly affluent middle class and most notably, by consumers’ readiness to trial new retail options, a phenomenon accelerated by the Covid-19 crisis. These factors enable iMile to help improve overall delivery experience for ecommerce customers.

The company has partnered with two ecommerce market leaders in Egypt so far and is working with a number of SMEs for door-to-door delivery. iMile is investing in a local team in Egypt, hiring exceptional local talent to ensure the best team is in place.

Ultimately, iMile seeks to enhance cross-border ecommerce logistics and their launch into Egypt presents an opportunity to bring customers in the MENA region even closer to sellers in China.
