A number of e-com players procure products from China and sell in the Indian market.
We hope to provide a quick, technologically advanced, cost-effective logistics service to entrepreneurs and logistics companies in both countries. We also hope to set up our office in China by the end of 2019. We have invested a lot in building proprietary algorithms to provide best quality services which would result in a higher topline for our clients.”
