Challenge
Shipping of goods inside India can be a nightmarish experience for first time shippers as there are lots of players in the market promising excellent service, and very few delivering the same. On the other hand, there’s a large community of mini-truck drivers in India who are unable to leverage the full potential of small-time shipment requirements, as there are freight brokers and dispatchers making their margins in between. Our client saw a scope for an application which removes these mediators and directly connects customers with truck drivers. Credencys offered its consulting and application development services to the client to launch – Cargoji, a first of its kind mobile application – which is helping small truck owners in India make big time changes in the industry.
Solution
With Cargoji, customers can easily transfer the shipment across a city by posting a request for load transfer with all specifications, and automatically, the request is sent to the nearest truck drivers. Whoever accepts the requests first, is allotted the deal. Once the booking is made, both the driver and the customer can track each other’s location in real-time. Payments are made once the cargo is successfully delivered to a destination.
