The story
From an idea to a delivery app across Egypt
I'm Khalid Namra, an Egyptian developer and the founder of the Wassel delivery app. The story didn't start in an office or a big company — it started with one laptop and a single question: why does delivery in Egypt have to stay chaotic?
I kept seeing people order food or medicine with no idea where the order was, when it would arrive, or who was responsible when something went wrong. And I kept seeing small restaurants lose customers simply because they had no serious delivery system behind them. That's where Wassel came from.
I built the first version myself — the customer app, the merchant dashboard and the rider app — and tested it in a very small area before expanding. Every feature in Wassel today came from a real complaint by a customer, a merchant or a rider.
The principle from day one is clarity: live tracking, a realistic ETA, support that answers in minutes, and fair income for the riders who do the real work.

Average Wassel user rating from 120 reviews
I order food and groceries weekly. Fastest app I've used, and the rider always calls ahead.
After joining Wassel our online orders grew 40% in two months, and the dashboard is dead simple.
The pharmacy service saved me more than once at night. Medicine arrived in 20 minutes.
Flexible hours and payouts always on time. Support answers fast if anything goes wrong.

Our ambition is to take Wassel beyond Egypt into the GCC countries with the same idea: fast, transparent delivery with a genuinely Arabic experience. This is a future goal we're working toward — the service currently operates inside Egypt.
