Insta World - Karachi, Pakistan

Founded a few months ago, Insta World is tackling two of Pakistan's most pressing issues in e-commerce: delayed fulfilment and deliveries (which can lead to cancellation rates of up to 35%), and long cash-on-delivery payment cycles that can cause serious financial strain on vendors. With a tech-first approach, we're outperforming our competitors in deliveries and fulfilments. We're also addressing the vendors' cash-flow issues by using our own fintech component to enable more efficient cash-on-delivery payments. Our team is made up of a computer scientist with a Ph.D. from Cornell University and an ex-Citigroup investment banker, both with extensive experience in the e-commerce space.
