We will be utilizing the investment primarily for talent acquisition, enhancing product & technology, and scaling GTM capabilities.
Vineet Sharma, CEO and Co-founder of Fleetx.io
He further added, Logistics & Transportation is the backbone for any economy across the globe and has been running on manual processes, with siloed systems and spreadsheets with no real-time visibility. The digital transformation of the logistics industry is just getting started with penetration level is still less than 10% in developing countries. Covid has exposed the fragileness in the supply chain industry and created an urgency for freight digitization, prompting Gartner to predict that 50% of leading global enterprises will have invested in real-time transportation visibility solutions by 2023. We are building an end-to-end platform to solve the opaque operations and siloed systems through technology and helping customers to visualize their physical logistics operations in real-time, on one integrated platform.”
“Fleetx was one of India Quotient’s first few SaaS investments when we realized that Indian businesses will begin to adopt the software. From sales to fleet owners (transport sector) in the beginning, they have scaled the product to fit many industries such as FMCG, Automotive, Cement, Iron & Steel, and E-com, etc. Today 70% of their revenue comes from mid to large customers. Logistics & Supply Chain SaaS is a massive market globally and Fleetx, growing more than 100% YoY, will soon enter other SEA countries”
