Foran Delivery is now live in Karachi and Hyderabad, marking its next step in building a hyperlocal delivery ecosystem for Pakistan across two cities rather than one. The expansion extends the NIC Hyderabad startup’s reach beyond its original base, placing it in direct competition for a larger share of Pakistan’s growing demand for local, on-demand delivery services.

The expansion comes alongside notable financial momentum, with the company reporting PKR 4.93 million in order value and PKR 307,000 in profit for Q3 2026, a turnaround from a PKR 261,000 loss recorded in Q1 of the same year. Moving from a loss-making position to a profitable one within two quarters, while simultaneously pushing into a second city, suggests Foran Delivery has made meaningful progress on its underlying unit economics rather than simply growing its order volume without improving its margins.

Scaling a hyperlocal delivery business typically requires solving logistical and operational challenges specific to each new city it enters, from building out rider networks to understanding local demand patterns, which makes expanding into Karachi and Hyderabad simultaneously a notable operational undertaking for a company still working through its early profitability. The company’s description of this moment as moving from growth to scale reflects a shift in how it is framing its own trajectory, treating the combination of improved financials and expanded footprint as evidence that its model is ready for a broader rollout rather than further validation within a single market.

NIC Hyderabad highlighted Foran Delivery’s progress as part of its ongoing effort to showcase the ventures emerging from its incubation programme, continuing to operate with support from the Ministry of IT and Telecommunication Pakistan, Ignite National Technology Fund, PTCL, LMKT and Tech Destination Pakistan.
