Web-based business platforms is the talk of the town. Start-ups like GoComet are entering into the market with fresh idea and approach to make logistics simpler, or atleast that is what they aim at!

An Online Market Place For Logistics!

The magnetism of India’s online marketplace is so much that even czar of brick and mortar stores Kishore Biyani who was some years ago an ardent critic of online selling has softened his stand on the potential. There is rarely any sector which has not been touched by web-based platform, and it was just a matter of time till the fever got to the logistics sector. The latest entrant is GoComet, founded in 2016 by four engineers from IIT-Delhi. The company grabbed the headlines for raising multiple rounds of funding from PEs even at time when fresh funding have dried up.

The company claims to be first-of-its-kind marketplace for international freight services, offering a platform for international B2B freight service providers and clients, to manage everything from booking containers to tracking and Custom clearances, all from a single dashboard. It also takes the responsibility to manage all paperwork to ensure seamless end-to-end cargo delivery internationally. It has no hidden charges and a tech-enabled system to move, track and manage cargo.

What new it has!
