There is a massive opportunity in courier aggregation as e-commerce is evolving fast and has sufficient headroom for growth in the coming years, Kapil Makhija, managing director and chief executive officer of listed e-commerce SaaS platform Unicommerce, told Mint, shortly after announcing the acquisition of courier aggregation and automation platform Shipway.

"Courier aggregation is a large opportunity. Today, it accounts for more than 85% of Shipway's total revenue and will continue to be a primary driver going forward. It also ties in with Unicommerce's core products," Makhija said in an interview.
