Careem

Careem is a ride-hailing and multi-service platform that operates across the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia. Founded in 2012 by Mudassir Sheikha and Magnus Olsson, the company has grown from a corporate car booking service into a comprehensive "super app." In 2019, Careem was acquired by Uber Technologies and continues to operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary. The platform offers a variety of services, including ride-hailing, food delivery, grocery delivery, micro-mobility options like bike and scooter sharing, and digital payments through Careem Pay. Careem serves over 50 million customers in more than 70 cities across 10 countries, providing opportunities for 2.5 million drivers, known as Captains. The company aims to simplify and improve lives while fostering a positive organizational culture, employing over 12,000 people across its operations.
