Renter

Urban last-mile delivery in Romania faces inefficient, costly, and polluting mobility solutions, especially for immigrant couriers and 3PL (third-party logistics) companies. 20% of courier job applicants in Romania lack access to transportation, and immigrant workers face additional barriers due to financial instability, language gaps, and unfamiliarity with local logistics. For 3PLs, owning and managing delivery fleets is capital-intensive and operationally risky, while cars and petrol scooters increase costs, emissions, and downtime.

Renter provides long-term, all-inclusive e-bike (and soon e-scooter) subscriptions for couriers and 3PLs, removing upfront costs and downtime risks. The service includes full maintenance, rapid repair/replacement guarantees, and purpose-built vehicles designed in-house for courier needs, supported by a proprietary ERP system for efficient fleet management.

Renter delivers immediate, measurable social and environmental impact by enabling couriers to increase their net income by approximately 60% through access to reliable, all-inclusive e-bikes and e-scooters without upfront costs or downtime risks. Each deployed vehicle replaces high-emission alternatives, avoiding around 7 tons of CO2 per year per car and 2.5 tons of CO2 per petrol scooter, while all batteries are responsibly recycled. These impacts are systematically tracked through Renter’s proprietary ERP system with quarterly impact dashboards, ensuring accountability as the model scales.
