PT Lion Express (Lion Parcel) has once again demonstrated that its business model successfully encourages various groups, including the younger generation, to view entrepreneurship as a viable option for building a career and income source. The logistics industry is a sector offering such opportunities, in line with the increasing need for delivery services in the digital trade era. This was the opportunity spotted by Yoel Abraham (23), a Lion Parcel agent partner in Pontianak. Armed with a desire to start a business while still at university and seeing the logistics industry as promising, Yoel began his Lion Parcel agency business three years ago. Now, his venture continues to grow alongside the rising demand in Pontianak for fast and reliable delivery services. “When I was still studying, I looked for business opportunities that didn’t require too much capital, and Lion Parcel was the choice because the agent registration fee was affordable,” said Yoel in an official statement from Lion Parcel on Thursday, 23 July 2026. He also acknowledged seeing Lion Parcel’s advantages, particularly its extensive delivery network supported by Lion Group flights, which ensures fast shipments. According to him, this is highly relevant to the needs in Pontianak. “From here, we send a lot of local specialities like layer cake, bingke cake, durian lempok, and hekeng, which require fast delivery services so the products arrive safely,” he said. Running a business while juggling university studies was certainly not without challenges. In the early days of his venture, Yoel had to be adept at dividing his time between lectures and managing the agency’s operations. Moreover, as a student with an English Language education background, he also had to learn the ins and outs of the logistics industry from scratch. “I really learned logistics from zero. Fortunately, the Lion Parcel team was very helpful and guided me from the start. Even now, if there are any obstacles, they always help until it’s resolved,” Yoel said. Thanks to his perseverance in building the business, Yoel’s Lion Parcel agency has continued to grow, now achieving tens of millions of rupiah in monthly revenue. After graduating, he has become even more focused on developing his business by actively using social media to reach more customers.
