Press release:

Khwarizmi Ventures is thrilled to announce the successful partial exit from its portfolio company,  Bosta, marking another important step forward for the firm, bringing the total to 6 successful  exits from Tamara, POSRocket, Fatura, Melltoo, Qawafel, and now Bosta. The firm has  distributed capital back to Fund I investors twice in less than 5 years since the launch date. 

Khwarizmi Ventures invested in Bosta three times, starting with its Series A round and later leading  one of the follow-on rounds, backing the founding team for their ambitious vision, customer-centric approach, and ability to execute in one of the region's most dynamic sectors. As Bosta  scaled from an emerging startup into a market leader, Khwarizmi Ventures completed a partial exit, realising about a 3x net multiple across its total position. This step reflects the value created  through Bosta’s growth and the strength of the partnership built from the company’s earliest stage.

"We're incredibly proud of Bosta team and grateful to be part of their journey. This  achievement reflects the founders' vision, relentless execution, and the strength of  innovation emerging from the MENA startup ecosystem. We look forward to the  company's next chapter of growth. 

— Abdulaziz AlTurki, Managing Partner at Khwarizmi Ventures 

Since its founding in 2017, Bosta has transformed logistics and last-mile delivery by providing  businesses with reliable, technology-driven shipping solutions. Through continuous innovation  and strong execution, the company has expanded its reach, strengthened its market position, and  delivered meaningful value to merchants and consumers. 

"Bosta was founded to solve one of the biggest challenges facing e-commerce in our region:  reliable, scalable last-mile delivery. Over the years, we’ve evolved into a platform that  supports thousands of businesses and enables commerce across multiple markets. This  outcome reflects how far Bosta has come and the strength of the team behind it. We’re excited  to build on this foundation and continue expanding Bosta’s impact across the region." 

— Mohamed Ezzat, Founder & CEO at Bosta 

This achievement reinforces Khwarizmi Ventures' commitment to partnering with exceptional  founders to build category-defining technology companies across the region. We congratulate the  entire Bosta team, including its employees, customers, investors, and partners, on their success  and wish them continued success in the years ahead.
