We look forward to working closely with them and shaping the future of the company.”

Das adds: “I am excited to join at this pivotal time in the company’s growth journey. As global and domestic carriers and enterprises digitize their operations and supply chains, Delhivery’s OS1 platform, based on 13 years of stellar operating capabilities in a complex market, has the potential to become a foundational layer of the relatively new, undisrupted logistics technology market.”

Kumar says: “Over the next decade, we expect the top 500 companies in India to fundamentally alter their supply chain operations towards greater speed, flexibility and reliability. Delhivery's ability to drive integrated warehousing and transportation solutions at scale will be a true differentiator and the Supply Chain Services division will be a driver of long-term value creation.”
