Umair Chishti, McKinsey & INSEAD alumnus, has joined Eat Mubarak as Head of Delivery Services to improve and grow the delivery fleet and operational performance of Eat Mubarak. Over the past 10 months, Eat Mubarak has seen exponential growth, spanning over half a million users and completing 3500+ deliveries daily in 6 cities. We are hoping to expand operations with the direction given by Umair.

Umair brings with him vast international experience and knowledge. He has prior experience as Head of Downstream Strategy at TASNEE, Saudi Arabia and a consultant at McKinsey Middle East, and he hopes to apply that at Eat Mubarak.

“It is great to have qualified people coming back to Pakistan to work and invest in their own country and take up the responsibility of giving back to their community and their people. We, at Eat Mubarak, have the vision of becoming the biggest Pakistani food delivery and directory platform, and with people like Umair, who share the same passion and drive, and have great initiative, we hope to put this vision into action”, said Sair Ali, CEO of Eat Mubarak, upon Umair’s addition to the team.

Umair says,

My MBA at INSEAD gave me a range of options all over the world including Pakistan. I was looking for a place where I can inspire the next generation to do something big. In Eat Mubarak I found the opportunity to make a better tomorrow. It not only shares my own vision but has gone a long way to implement that by providing employment to over 400 people in just 10 months. This was the same spirit in which I helped McKinsey&Company open its office in Pakistan. The people at Eat Mubarak are the most inspiring people I have met, led by Sair Ali. Everyone I talked to at Eat Mubarak was driven by purpose and wanted to create a company that will transform the landscape not just in Pakistan, but all over the world.

Eat Mubarak has entered the food delivery market with more than 3,500 restaurants in a short span of time and doing thousands of food orders on a daily basis. Eat Mubarak is the only food platform that is integrated with the top apps of Pakistan, thus enabling users to order food from within other apps like JazzCash, Bank Alfalah Alfa App, HBL Konnect, SimSim, Fonepay etc.
