Transporters and Shippers have long been searching for each other. The rise of the internet has made this easier, but making a connection is still fraught with challenges. A digital transformation is necessary for the logistics industry to better operate. In order to optimize operations, online logistics marketplaces are required that provide both transporters and shippers with quick access to comprehensive information in order to mutually benefit from each other.
Online logistics marketplaces can help bridge the gap by finding transporters or shippers who are in need of one another’s services. It doesn’t just offer convenience, but also offers incredible benefits. Let’s have a look at some of them
- The first thing to note is that the platform unites buyers and sellers from all over the world so they can get in touch quickly and simply. This creates a win-win situation where everyone gets what they want when they want it.
- A digital platform brings a faster transaction between the buyer and seller than traditional ways of connecting them – it can happen in less time than it takes to make a phone call or send an email! This means that transactions can be processed quickly instead of weeks later with manual labor as brokers work around the clock.
- The marketplace also provides more transparency about prices so that the buyer can be sure they are getting a fair deal.
Wahyd Logistics has launched Pakistan’s first online logistics marketplace, connecting shippers with transporters in one single, centralized portal.
With this new online logistics marketplace, the process of submitting a transport request takes just two clicks – both transporters and shippers can search and compare quotes in no time. This leads to more transparency as transporters take into consideration the shipper’s needs and preferences, providing them with the best possible price.
