Interaction with Abhijeet Manohar co-founder Pando
It was a pleasure interacting with Abhijeet Manohar sir, co-founder Pando as part of the Velocity masterclass hosted by Vinay Kumar from Amazon Web Services (AWS) in association with Delhivery and Nexus Venture Partners
I was both impressed and inspired to know that he has more than 50+ patents under his belt .
He rightly said that visbility is far more than ETA for supply chain clients .
They need visbility right from the load getting ready to the final delivery .
He shared some interesting facts about logistics in India :
– 2.2 cr direct employees
– 4th largest employment generator
– 13-14% of GDP
– 14% of GHG emissions
– $247 Billion / annum market
