A logistics platform with a difference

EVER WONDERED HOW daily supplies or consumer goods reach the villages and talukas of rural India from the industrial towns and manufacturing hubs? Sharath Chandangoudar and Amit Akkihal did. So they studied the market for last-mile delivery in rural India, identified the stakeholders and the bottlenecks, and founded Tusker Transport in 2019, an intraregional B2B last-mile logistics and transportation aggregator platform for owner-operated trucks and micro-entrepreneurs based in tier-II, III and IV towns. With a transporter pool of over 12,000 vehicles, Tusker today services remote rural districts of Karnataka, Maharashtra and Goa, aiming to provide last-mile delivery solutions across 6,000 pincodes by the end of 2024.
