From the Gulf to the Levant
The expansion into Syria marks a significant step in Paquik’s regional growth.

This latest launch brings its community-driven shipping model to a market with unique logistical needs.
A Community-Driven Logistics Model
Paquik operates on a peer-to-peer model that bypasses traditional courier services. The platform connects individuals needing to ship items with travelers who have available luggage space. This approach is designed to offer a faster, more affordable, and flexible alternative to conventional shipping methods.
For travelers, the platform provides an opportunity to monetize their journey by carrying items for others. For senders, it opens up a new channel for cross-border shipping, managed through the startup’s app.
The service is now operational across major Syrian cities including Damascus, Aleppo, Homs, Hama, Latakia, and Tartous, as well as smaller towns and regions, enabling shipments to and from a global network of users.
