Panther Tyres Launches “Panther Heroes”

Panther Tyres Launches “Panther Heroes” – A CSR Initiative Honouring Everyday Champions

In April of 2025, Panther Tyres proudly introduced Panther Heroes—a heartfelt Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) movement dedicated to recognizing and uplifting the everyday heroes who play an essential role in keeping Pakistan moving forward.

This impactful initiative begins by celebrating a group often overlooked yet deeply integral to the rhythm of daily life: rickshaw drivers. These individuals navigate the intense heat, the bustling roads, and the countless challenges of urban mobility, all while helping passengers reach their destinations and dreams. In many ways, they are unsung heroes of the road—and Panther Tyres has made it a mission to honour their resilience and service.

As a part of this movement, Panther Tyres rolled out its Roshan Boxes—thoughtfully curated packages designed to offer rickshaw drivers practical support and a touch of comfort in their demanding routines. These boxes are more than symbolic; they are a tangible expression of gratitude and solidarity.

The broader objective of the Panther Heroes campaign is to foster a culture of appreciation and empathy. By spotlighting individuals who form the backbone of urban transportation, Panther Tyres seeks to not only give back to the community but also amplify awareness about the everyday contributions of these workers.

This campaign goes beyond traditional CSR—it is Panther Tyres’ promise to stand beside those who have tirelessly supported us, often from behind the handlebars of a humble three-wheeler. It embodies a spirit of collective responsibility and shared respect.

“Jo roz humein manzil tak le jaate hain, chalo aao hum unka saath nibhaate hain.”

With Panther Heroes, Panther Tyres continues to lead by example—showcasing its commitment to not only mobility and innovation but also to human dignity, social equity, and community connection.
