Sponsored: Join talabat UAE in giving back to riders
Want to give back this Ramadan? Order through talabat UAE app and you will be able to provide an iftar meal to our hardworking delivery drivers across the Dubai.
The popular online delivery platform has renewed its partnership with ‘Hero Meals’ Campaign with IACAD* for a second year after a successful campaign in 2025. Last year’s Ramadan ‘Hero Meals’ campaign saw more than 4,000 meals being provided to delivery drivers.
This year it returns to amplify collective impact.
Through the talabat app, customers can contribute meals to drivers prepared by participating restaurant partners to show appreciation for the riders who make daily deliveries possible.
Over 650 branches are participating in the initiative including Mama’esh, Maraheb Express, Karachi Darbar, Puranmal, and House of Nihari. The restaurants will offer up a menu of items priced between Dhs15 and Dhs30.
Even Lulu Hypermarket has signed up for the initiative allowing customers, partners, and riders to take part in a shared act of generosity.
The restaurants can be viewed from the ‘Hero Meals’ collection on the talabat app. To contribute, all you have to do is add a ‘rider meal’ to your basket during checkout.
The ‘Hero Meals’ collection will be available daily between 5pm and 7pm throughout Ramadan. The delivery riders will receive their meal when they pick up the customers order, which they can enjoy during iftar.
Simonida Subotic, Vice President and Managing Director at talabat UAE, said, “Hero Meals’ is designed to bring together our customers, restaurant partners, and riders around an easy, meaningful way to give back. It’s also a chance to recognise and support the riders who are essential to serving communities across the UAE, during Ramadan and beyond.”
Mohammad Musabeh Ali Dhahi, CEO of the Charitable Work Sector at IACAD, said,”The Hero Meals campaign reflects the true spirit of Ramadan and the power of community solidarity. We are proud to renew our partnership with talabat UAE through this initiative, which carries an important message of appreciation for those who serve the community every day.”
*This initiative has been approved by the Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department (IACAD) under permit number PRHCE-0054432.
