Our vision

Five years, from Libya

Within five years, SAAFER aims to be the Arabic-first travel and services super-app linking North Africa, Europe and Southern Africa — starting from Libya.

Expansion plan: Libya firstTunisia, Europe (Spain and Germany), South Africa

A plan, not a promise: the years count from the Libya launch and are reviewed at every step. Libya is the only market we are building for today.

Five years, five steps

Where we plan to be each year, and what that year adds. Choose a year to light up its markets on the map.

The expansion map

Libya first. Then the first markets we plan to open after the Libya launch, and the countries where SAAFER already has a project director.

Map of Europe and Africa. Libya is lit as SAAFER's launch market, with flight paths to Tunisia, Spain, Germany and South Africa.

Planned markets, not operations: nothing on this map means an office, a licence or a live service outside Libya.
