Lahore, October 23, 2025: As Pakistan enters the seasonal period of intense atmospheric smog, foodpanda, Pakistan’s leading online delivery platform, has announced the launch of its “Breath of Care” initiative, distributing 8,000 Smog Safety Kits to its dedicated rider fleet across the country this week. The program is designed to provide immediate relief and protection, highlighting the company’s commitment to the health and safety of the individuals who form the backbone of urban connectivity.
