Air Link Communication Limited, a company engaged in the import, export, distribution, and retail of communication and IT-related products, is set to launch its electric bike brand, Air EV, on November 4, 2026, according to a report.
The company plans to initially source electric bikes from international partners before gradually shifting to local assembly and manufacturing, aiming for up to 95% localisation over time.
Air Link also intends to expand its sales of consumer appliances and has established Airfin to provide buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) financing for smartphones, televisions, air conditioners, and electric bikes.
The company expects significant untapped potential in Pakistan’s BNPL market, which it believes can support net margins and offset pressure from slower mobile phone sales.
Air Link Communication Limited was incorporated in Pakistan as a private limited company in January 2014 and converted into a public limited company in April 2019.
The company’s core business includes the import, export, distribution, indenting, wholesale, and retail of communication and IT-related products and services, such as smartphones, cellular phones, tablets, laptop accessories, and related products.
Earlier in July, Air Link announced the establishment of an electric bike manufacturing plant under its own brand AirV, marking a significant step in its expansion into the electric mobility market.
Air Link expects air conditioner sales to reach 65,000 units in 2027 and 95,000 in 2028, while television sales are projected at 50,000 units in 2027 and 65,000 in 2028, according to the research note.
