Aiming to further augment its hyper-local grocery delivery service, Fatafat, Chandigarh-based Jugnoo has started a logistics service for businesses called Dodo Deliveries. This would give the drivers an additional source of income by taking delivery requests when they are not taking any ride, the company said in a statement.
Currently, it has been made operational in Chandigarh and its adjoining cities. It will be launched in Indore, Gurgaon and Noida within the next two weeks. Jugnoo intends to launch Dodo in more than 15 cities in the next two months.
Samar Singla, the CEO of Jugnoo, said, “There is an urgent need for end-to-end logistics solutions in the market and Dodo aims to be the next piece of the jigsaw in the hyper-local marketplace.”
“After launching ‘Fatafat’, tapping the B2B segment was apparent as we had to associate with various vendors to source goods. Therefore, conceptualising and actualizing Dodo Deliveries was a natural progression,” added Singla.
Started in October 2014, Jugnoo was started in Chandigarh by Singla and Chinmay Agarwal, both alumni of IIT- Delhi. It is an on-demand auto rickshaw service aggregation company. It provides on-demand transportation and logistics services across 32 cities in India.
It also develops and operates a mobile application, which helps connect the user with the auto drivers in the vicinity. It is operated by Chandigarh-based SoCoMo Technologies Pvt Ltd.
