From 4×4 to Fleet: The Inspiring Journey of a TheLorry Driver Partner

Back in November 2020, when Malaysia was under strict Movement Control Orders (MCO), many industries came to a standstill. Hafiz, then a CEO of an event company, faced a sudden halt to his business. But instead of waiting for things to return, he chose to pivot—joining TheLorry as a driver partner.With events being canceled across Malaysia, he faced a tough question: What’s next?

Instead of waiting for things to return to normal, Hafiz decided to pivot his career. He joined TheLorry as a driver partner, starting small with his personal 4×4 vehicle, delivering groceries to families stuck at home during Malaysia’s Movement Control Order (MCO).


A Bold Pivot During MCO

While many in the event industry struggled to recover, Hafiz found an unexpected opportunity in logistics. E-commerce and online shopping were booming, and delivery services became a lifeline. With TheLorry, he could use his existing resources—his 4×4—to keep moving forward.

Six months later, Hafiz had done more than survive—he had thrived. His determination helped him grow from a single 4×4 into a fleet of lorries serving both grocery and e-commerce delivery needs across Malaysia.

“Logistics is a beautiful service where I can bring happiness by delivering what customers want,” Hafiz shares.

Hafiz’s journey, which began in November 2020, reminds us how resilience during tough times can open unexpected doors. Five years later, his story still inspires new driver partners at TheLorry to keep moving forward.


TheLorry Driver Partner Community: More Than Just Work

Being part of TheLorry’s driver-partner community gave Hafiz more than financial stability. It taught him valuable communication and people skills while exposing him to the diverse cultures and kindness of Malaysians.

For him, every delivery is more than just moving goods—it’s about delivering happiness. From families waiting for their groceries to online shoppers excited for their parcels, Hafiz has found joy in being part of customers’ daily lives.

And he’s not alone. Thousands of TheLorry driver partners across Malaysia share similar stories of resilience, growth, and pride in keeping the country moving.
