TRANSPORTATION NEWS
Hello. Here’s a potato for you.
To many people, it’s something served at the meals we eat everyday. To some others, it is something we buy at grocery shops or supermarkets.
To an even fewer, it starts at the farms. (Everybody knows that. I just wasn’t preparing you for the frame of reference I intended.)
By simple physics, some force must have brought it from the farmers to the local markets near our houses. And to many of us at LOGIVAN, the force comes under the form of a truck.
According to WorldBank, in 2016, 77% of the freight volume transported in the country was done by trucks. That makes this trucking industry a giant 25 BILLION dollar meatloaf.
We have examined this question over 2 years. Here are the 3 answers that kept coming back.
Imagine that each of these 6 brokers was merciful enough to charge us 5% commission only, what we ended up being charged is 34% higher than what we could have paid to have the same value delivered.
You can 100% sympathize with the fact that a truck traveling 1000 miles should carry with it a lot of risks, until that risk really happens, to you. (Replace “you” with “trucking business owner” or “customer”, the statement remains applicable.)
The problem is long but the solution is simple.
LOGIVAN is trying to do just that.
As of September 2019, LOGIVAN has a 44,000-trucker fleet distributed in 64 provinces across Vietnam with every single type of trucks — ranging from reefers to dry vans. That gives us the full capacity to address any kind of demand the market should have.
But that’s just the first step. In order to solve the problem thoroughly we need more than just a long list of truckers. LOGIVAN is leveraging the vast amount of data available on the trips, truckers and shippers’ behaviors to make booking a truck as seamlessly and hassle-free as possible, while tremendously cut down the cost.
This post is just the first piece of a series on the way we’re tackling this industry’s puzzles. Coming up next:
These for sure aren’t easy challenges — but that’s exactly why they are so enchanting! We can’t wait to share more about what’s in the pipeline. Stay tuned for the upcoming posts, more on potatoes is on the way!
