Swvl Secures Its First Working Capital Facility in the UAE with Zelo to Accelerate Growth in Its Fastest-Growing Market
Swvl's
signs its first
working capital facility in the UAE provid
ing
dedicated liquidity to launch and scale new enterprise accounts in the Company's pipeline
Builds on Swvl's UAE relaunch since December 2024, during which the Company has achieved approximately 5x revenue growth in the GCC market, reinforcing UAE as one of Swvl's accelerating markets
​
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates,
September 1
, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —
Swvl Holdings Corp (“Swvl” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SWVL), a leading provider of technology-enabled mass mobility solutions, today announced that it has secured a working capital facility with Zelo
,
the Company's first such facility in the United Arab Emirates (“UAE”). The facility provides Swvl with dedicated liquidity to fund and accelerate the launch of new enterprise accounts in its UAE pipeline, building on the market's rapid growth since the Company's relaunch.
Since relaunching in the UAE in December 2024, Swvl has achieved approximately 5x revenue growth and secured a series of enterprise contracts, including a recently announced five-year contract valued at up to $5.5 million. Proceeds from the facility are expected to be directed toward client acquisition and further expansion in the UAE.
We believe the facility enables Swvl to convert its growing pipeline into live, revenue-generating contracts more quickly by matching short-term funding to the working-capital needs of new deployments, supporting growth without diluting shareholders.
Swvl selected Zelo as a financing partner due to Zelo’s ability to understand Swvl’s business model, growth trajectory, and working capital requirements. Zelo’s flexible and solutions-oriented approach enabled Swvl to access the liquidity required to support new enterprise deployments and accelerate growth in the UAE market.
Growth in the UAE is broad-based rather than dependent on any single client or sector. Swvl's new and expanding enterprise deployments in the market span diversified industries, including e-commerce warehousing, manpower and security services, and healthcare, widening the contracted pipeline the facility is intended to fund.
These accounts typically involve complex operations running across multiple sites and shifts, where Swvl designs a fully optimized transportation network, matching routing, scheduling, and vehicle mix to each client's workforce and site footprint.
Deployments are supported by software and hardware integrations that provide visibility on vehicles, drivers, and passengers, while maintaining safety and fleet-management guardrails. Alongside operations, Swvl provides fleet management consultancy aimed at cutting clients' operational costs and minimizing fuel consumption and vehicle mileage.
“The UAE is one of our most important and fastest-growing markets, and access to local, scalable working capital is a key enabler of our next phase of growth,”
said Mostafa Kandil, Chief Executive Officer of Swvl.
“This facility with Zelo allows us to move quickly on the strong pipeline we have built, launching new enterprise accounts with the liquidity they require, while staying disciplined and asset-light.”
“We believe that securing our first working capital facility in the UAE is an important step in how we fund growth,”
said Ahmed Misbah, Chief Financial Officer of Swvl.
“By matching dedicated, short-term financing to the working-capital needs of new deployments, we believe that we can accelerate revenue conversion in
one of
our highest-value market
s.”
“Finance should do more than fund businesses, it should create value for everyone involved,”
said Dhanush Arjun, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Zelo.
“At Zelo, every facility is structured to create a win for our client, a win for their stakeholders, and a win for the broader economy. We're excited to partner with Swvl as it scales one of its most important markets.”
