ShipBlu

ShipBlu is an Egyptian third-party logistics and e-commerce fulfillment platform serving the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region — providing warehousing, inventory management, pick-and-pack fulfillment, last-mile delivery, and returns processing for online retailers and e-commerce brands across Egypt and the broader Arab world. Founded in 2021 in Cairo, ShipBlu raised $2.52 million from Y Combinator, 500 Global, and other investors, generating $17.1 million in revenue in 2024, with plans to expand into Saudi Arabia.\n\nShipBlu's technology-enabled fulfillment centers in Egypt handle the full e-commerce logistics workflow for merchants — receiving inventory, storing it in organized warehouses, processing orders from multiple sales channels (Shopify, WooCommerce, Jumia, Amazon.ae), and dispatching packages for last-mile delivery. The platform provides real-time inventory visibility, order tracking, and returns management through a merchant dashboard. Egypt's rapidly growing e-commerce sector (driven by rising smartphone penetration and increased trust in online shopping post-COVID) creates strong demand for professional fulfillment infrastructure.\n\nIn 2025, ShipBlu competes in the Egyptian and MENA e-commerce fulfillment market with Aramex (the established regional logistics operator), Fetchr, and emerging Egyptian logistics tech companies for e-commerce fulfillment and last-mile delivery. Egypt's e-commerce market is one of the fastest-growing in Africa, with significant headroom as internet penetration and digital payment adoption continue to increase. The planned Saudi Arabia expansion targets one of the largest and most affluent e-commerce markets in the Arab world. ShipBlu's 2025 strategy focuses on completing the Saudi Arabia market entry, deepening Egypt fulfillment center capacity, adding value-added services (product photography, packaging customization) for e-commerce merchants, and building cross-border fulfillment capabilities for merchants selling across the GCC.
