Riyadh-based logistics technology startup Routech Express has raised $1 million (SAR 3.75 million) in a pre-seed funding round led by Qewam Fund, with participation from a group of angel investors.
Founded in 2024 by Abdullah bin Muammar and Jihad Al-Dawood, Routech Express operates a unified digital shipping platform that aggregates multiple carriers into a single interface, enabling users to instantly compare prices, book shipments, make payments, and track deliveries in real time.
The fresh capital will be used to accelerate platform development, expand carrier integrations, and support the company’s expansion within Saudi Arabia and into international markets. Routech Express aims to position itself as a one-stop digital layer for logistics, simplifying shipping for individuals, merchants, and businesses amid the Kingdom’s rapidly growing e-commerce ecosystem.
Routech Express previously won the Al-Alf Mile Program, part of Saudi Arabia’s National Industrial Development and Logistics Program (NIDLP), highlighting its alignment with Vision 2030 objectives focused on logistics automation and digital transformation.
According to the company, the funding will also help enhance platform capabilities, improve service quality and coverage, and provide merchants with flexible, technology-driven shipping solutions as they scale locally and globally.
