TIER e-scooters first and last-mile solutions
TIER’s e-scooters are entirely designed for first and last-mile solutions, making them the most suited partner for this year’s Expo 2020, while allowing talabat to benefit from its exceptional hardware as well as its expertise as a leading operator in the Middle East.
The company is the first provider in the Middle East to use swappable battery technology, this positions TIER at the industry forefront in terms of sustainability since the need to transport scooters back and forth to warehouses charging is obsolete, and empty batteries can be swapped on-site by the local team.
Expo 2020 is set to be a food destination in its own right, with hundreds of F&B outlets and global cuisines at every visitor’s fingertips.
With this initiative, visitors don’t have to walk their way to any restaurants, especially when they get tired. Just make an order from talabat and it will be delivered to wherever they may be at Expo.
