They have now established systems and processes to pick up packages from a number of sellers and ship them to multiple pin codes.<\/p>\n<p>At a customer&#8217;s doorstep they pick up returns and keep the online retail firms updated on the status of the package at every step of its journey. Even cash-on-delivery (COD), which accounts for about 60% of all online retail transactions, is under control, said the companies.\u00a0With competition heating up in online retail, companies have started offering services like next-day and same-day deliveries, adding to the pressures on logistics companies. The need for speed and the requirement to reach customers in remote locations is driving innovation. &#8220;If online retail has to grow to the humongous numbers everyone is talking about then logistics has to reach the smaller towns,&#8221; said DotZot&#8217;s Kathuria.<\/p>\n<p>Competition to Indian logistics companies will be mainly from these global giants, as well as the many thousands of local logistics companies in China. A measure of the interest in the Chinese logistics market is the fact that the first Transport Logistic China exhibition held in Shanghai in mid &#8217;04 attracted 214 logistics companies from 27 countries.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Logistics-and-Supply-Chain-Management\">Click here for government certification in Logistics &amp; Supply Chain Management<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The race to sort, package and ship millions of products that Indians are buying online is becoming a hotly contested one in the Indian logistics industry as several companies launch innovative services to grab the growing business.\u00a0The lack of efficient logistics support has been a bottleneck for India&#8217;s online retail industry.Apart from tapping the large&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":804,"featured_media":23434,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_joinchat":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1532],"tags":[1044,1904,1905],"class_list":["post-22890","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-logistics-and-supply-chain-management","tag-e-commerce","tag-e-commerce-logistics","tag-logistics"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 -
