Recalling the factors that led to the inception of the courier service provider Delhivery, Mr. Bhavesh Manglani, COO and Co-founder, said that the traditional delivery channels were expensive and time consuming. “Backed by a robust and technologically sound supply chain, Delhivery aspires to fulfill all e-commerce consumption transactions in India”, he added. Talking about the importance of data analytics, he said, “Data Analytics is to B-School Grads, what IT revolution was for Engineers”.
