Paket Taxi is a technology-driven logistics company operating in Turkey, founded in 2016 by Raşit Emir Süer and Serkan Can. The founders identified that logistics often represent a significant cost and operational distraction for businesses whose core activities are not in transport. Raşit Emir Süer, born in Ordu in 1984, had an early interest in commerce and, after a business failure in 2011, pivoted to the digital delivery and urban logistics sector, leading to the creation of Paket Taxi.
The company provides hyper-local delivery services, primarily catering to the e-commerce and food sectors, including clients like restaurants and online retailers. Its business model revolves around outsourcing the courier needs of these companies, transforming a complex operational challenge into a streamlined service. Paket Taxi utilizes a large network of over 7,000 couriers—using motorcycles, cars, and bicycles—across 81 provinces in Turkey to offer fast and secure delivery. Revenue is generated by providing these delivery services to a client base of over 5,000 businesses. A key feature of their service is a proprietary mobile application for both iOS and Android, which allows clients to request couriers and customers to track their deliveries in real-time, reducing wait times and increasing transparency.
A significant milestone in the company's history was the strategic partnership with Migros, a major Turkish retailer. In 2019, Migros acquired a 25% stake, which was later increased. By April 2022, Migros had acquired a total of 75% of Paket Taxi's shares for 104.5 million TL, making Paket Taxi an operating subsidiary while Raşit Emir Süer remained a minority shareholder and continued to influence the company's direction. The company also places emphasis on social responsibility, actively promoting gender equality by employing over 180 female couriers and running the "Paket Taxi Academy" to professionalize the courier trade with certified training programs.
