WareIQ - Manager - Sales (5-8 yrs)
We are making India's e-commerce businesses successful by giving them the power of Amazon prime like logistics.
- Modern eCommerce consumers want the same & next day delivery. But the infrastructure in India can't keep up. 80% of eCommerce parcels outside Amazon reach customers in 5-10 days.
- India eCommerce demand is highly fragmented, yet 90% of brands ship from a central warehouse
- If platforms & brands don't offer prime-like shipping timelines, customers don't buy
- High fixed investments, rigid contracts & tech complexity makes prime-like fulfilment infrastructure inaccessible to online brands
- Enter WareIQ! WareIQ allows eCommerce companies to compete with Amazon service levels by bringing their average timelines from 5-10 days to the next day.
- We're a software-only platform that connects a nationwide network of fulfilment centres and last mile couriers centralizing all tools in a single platform
- Ownership of logistics SLAs by WareIQ fulfilment experts
- Micro-fulfilment model billed on usage with no minimums
- Onboarding in 7 days vs 3-6 months
- Trusted by 300+ top Indian brands, we are helping them accelerate online sales and expedite their growth through a synergistic combination of advanced technology, robust fulfilment infrastructure & seller enablement services!
- WareIQ is backed by leading global investors including Y Combinator, Funders Club, Flexport, Pioneer Fund, Soma Capital, and Emles Venture Partner.
