Paquik

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Overview

Founded in June 2022, Paquik operates a crowdshipping mobile application that connects individuals needing to send items internationally with travelers already heading to the same destination. By leveraging unused luggage capacity, the startup offers an alternative to traditional courier services, aiming to make international shipping faster and more affordable. The platform embeds trust and safety features such as KYC identity verification, escrow-based payments, a rating system, and dispute-resolution tools. CEO and co-founder George Antakis conceived the idea after repeatedly encountering costly and complex cross-border shipping for both business samples and personal goods. Paquik’s model taps into the daily flow of travelers across borders, turning them into on-demand couriers. The recent capital injection is intended to fund further product development and geographic expansion. While the company has not disclosed user or revenue figures, the new funding underscores early investor confidence in its logistics marketplace.
