Air Courier



Description
In the beautiful but remote Greek islands, getting things delivered can be a real challenge. That’s where our start-up comes in. We’re creating a courier service that focuses on picking up packages from courier hubs and local businesses and delivering them directly to their destination. The idea is simple but powerful: make deliveries easy, reliable, and efficient, even in the most isolated areas.

Our service is all about connecting the dots. We’ll take packages from courier hubs and local businesses and deliver them straight to the customer. This includes last-mile delivery for big courier companies and helping local businesses get their goods to customers. To make this work, we’ll use a mix of vehicles—small vans, electric scooters, and even boats if needed—so we can cover all kinds of terrain. On top of that, we’ll have an app where people can track their packages, schedule pick-ups, and get support easily.

People living and working on remote Greek islands often deal with late or missed deliveries because most courier services stop at central drop-off points. This means residents have to figure out how to get their packages themselves, which can be inconvenient and time-consuming. Local businesses also face issues with unreliable deliveries, which makes it harder for them to grow. Our service will solve these problems by offering consistent and dependable deliveries, making life easier for residents and helping businesses thrive.
Our target market includes:
1. Local Market: People and businesses on the Greek islands. This means small shops, restaurants, hotels, and even individuals who just want their online orders delivered without a hassle.
2. Courier Market: Big courier companies that need reliable last-mile delivery services to cover the islands.
The growing focus on efficient and sustainable logistics in Europe also means there’s room to expand our idea to other rural or hard-to-reach areas in the future.

We’ll make money by charging for each delivery. The cost will depend on how far the package needs to go, how big it is, and how quickly it needs to get there. For businesses that need regular deliveries, we’ll offer subscription plans. Plus, we’ll have premium options like same-day delivery and even advertising space in our app for local businesses.

Tech-Driven Service: Our app makes it easy for customers to track their packages and for us to run efficiently.
