An industry will collapse if the logistics components of the industry are compromised. Earlier, logistics was generally considered a military science, but with the growth of the middle class, the consumer market, and the economy, logistics has emerged as an independent industry. The most recent technological advancements and integrations acted as catalysts for the expansion of the logistics sector.

Striving to narrate the inspiring stories of pioneers in different sectors, The Business Connect Magazine got the opportunity to write about Truxcargo Pvt. Ltd., an AI-enabled shipping platform (SaaS) with decades of knowledge and expertise that has established its position among the fastest-growing tech-enabled logistics firms. The aim of Truxcargo is to offer hassle-free and streamlined shipping solutions to make your market presence a smooth ride.

Mr Gaurav Sharma, an accomplished management expert with a track record of working in the supply chain, sales, and marketing sectors, is the visionary leader behind Truxcargo. In a conversation with Business Connect Magazine, Mr Gaurav Sharma, Director at Truxcargo, discusses his inspiration for founding the company.

I started my job as a sales executive at an organisation that sold items. I used to sell the company’s product door-to-door as well as online while working I realised that if the owner of that business could earn by doing so, why couldn’t I? I eventually began selling the product on my own and launched my own startup under the name “Leepix,” where I had a terrific experience. However, after a few months, I got the opportunity to work at “Delhivery,” which is currently the leading logistics firm in the nation. During my job in Delhivery, I found there were a lot of gaps in the industry that motivated me start my own company. As a result, I made the difficult decision to follow my passion, and “Truxcargo” was born. I have always wanted to have an impact on the world, and business has given me the chance to do that. Through my work with smaller businesses and larger industries, I have gained a thorough understanding of the various aspects of shipping and logistics. By reimagining the overall process of utilisation and cost reduction, I have been able to reduce transit costs for our Indian micro-sellers and other businesses.
