To prepare for the upcoming surge in sales and deliveries with its gamut of services, Pickrr has announced to offer customised solutions for the e-commerce players to help COVID-19 hit online sellers recover in the following months. The company could bring down the typical 20 per cent increase in delivering e-commerce orders during festive to mere 5 per cent through their courier selection and real-time on-ground feature. Diwali is one of the highly celebrated seasons in the e-commerce industries as customers look forward to the sales and offers it brings. The sales are high, and the delivery periods are often longer due to an upsurge in order volume. Rhitiman Majumder, Co-founder, Pickrr, suggests, “Our real time analytics and prediction system to pre-empt failures gives the best performance to sellers so that they can make the most out of this season. While the general time taken to deliver orders increases by as much as 20 per cent is high demand seasons, we have retracted this rise to a mere 5 per cent through our intelligent courier selection and real time on-ground feedback in the past five years and will continue to do so.”
Pickrr has partnered with Delhivery, Ekart Logistics, Ecom Express, Dotzot, DTDC, XpressBees, FedEx and many more for its best-known delivery services.
For this year, Pickrr has curated customized offers for Diwali festival to help include local brands and small sellers deliver products to their customers. Rhitiman added, “This year has been tough for huge market players and for the smaller ones, it has been even tougher. We hope to provide multiple logistics options to these sellers, so they have more options to fall back upon.”
According to the Redseer report, total predicted gross merchandising volume could hit $4 billion during the festive rush and this could very well be called the ‘Economy Kickstarter’ that India had been waiting for.
Pickrr’s festive offers include real time performance report of all the partners so that sellers can switch easily; all-India coverage to deliver goods anywhere; single panel dashboard to manage everything related to logistics, from orders to finance; and an extended operations team to help sellers during Diwali so they can celebrate it peacefully.
