Ever since the Middle Ages, logistics has been a crucial part of winning or losing any war. Now, in the millennial generation, the logistics start-ups are fighting this war on multiple fronts for different industries. Apart from small ticket size funding ranging between $1 Mn -$10 Mn, there are start-ups like BlackBuck which secured over $90 Mn funding this year. Then there is Rivigo, which after raising $75 Mn in November 2016, has now become a potential contender to enter the Indian unicorn club, as Softbank has set its eyes upon the company to invest $2 Mn-$4 Mn.
As we are about to unfold another exciting year filled with unexpected deals and strategies, here is a start-up to watch out for in the Indian logistics sector.
