Innovative logistics and cargo management firm Moov
Nigeria, has revolutionized the sector
with a technology disruptor and pioneer online delivery service platform, to
improve logistics and cargo management for individuals and corporate
transportation organizations in the country and Africa as a whole.
The online platform, Moov.Com.Ng, is poised to
simplify the tedious freight brokerage activities, bringing in the dynamic
aspect of ‘freight bidding software’, sometimes referred to as ‘online truck
load boards’ or ‘freight load boards and help customers or cargo owners to
select choice delivery company from a pool of professionals the platform will
provide.
Aside instituting sanity in the industry, when launched,
the solution will also assist users, especially operators solve ‘Origin and
Destination (O&D) complexities, as cargo shipments are usually one-way,
with operators losing revenue along the line.
Before now, O&D results in doubling the workload
for cargo revenue management, since there is no return trip to count on,
however, Moov.com.ng will ensure the synchronization of multiple touch points,
including flights, trucks, regulatory/security checks, varying loading and
handling requirements, and special services which must all be factored into
cargo management to make correct decisions, meet customer agreements, and
generate profits.
“We are excited
to announce the launch of Moov Nigeria, a purely Internet logistics service
organization to the general public,” said the Founder and Country Manager, Moov
Nigeria, Mr. Larry Chinekezi, “The domain www.moov.com.ng connects shipping
users to carefully verified vehicle owner-drivers or delivery companies who
have the expertise and capability to pick up and deliver securely any parcel or
cargo from the home or office to desired destinations throughout the 36 states
of Nigeria.
Mr. Chinekezi said
that the innovative platform tends to entrench the era of reliable delivery
service, adding that lack of trust has been the bane of courier/logistics
industry in the country.
“Today, most
customers seem to have lost confidence in the delivery service, because whether
you choose to use the transporters, courier company or person-to-person
delivery, they all have issues and limitations, particularly with pilfering,
dumping of mails or damages.
They come back
telling the customers stories; therefore, the customer is the loser. In some
occasions, people have missed annual general meetings, weddings and other
functions just because the parcel conveying message to them was delivered late.
Even during trade shows you see material arriving on the day the event is
closing; such disappointment can be devastating. We tend to address this
challenge with Moov.com.ng.
“Secondly, the
service providers are going to benefit from this platform. Apart from the
registered courier companies that have offices, it is usually difficult to
accommodate those young people who have trucks/cars and can deliver goods for
people and make a living for themselves. There are also cases of driving using
company trucks to do personal delivery. Every day, they take off from their
houses, come back in the evening to tell stories of how VIO or LASTMA held them
throughout the day. Moov.com.ng with its tracking device will help the
companies track movement of their trucks real time, while the customers can
also track the state of their goods with ease”.
Mr. Chinekezi
added that through the innovative system over 500 Moov Agents will be setup
across the country; “with very little setup cost to get started, each agent
will operate as a business under Moov Nigeria and can develop their own branches
also within and earn regular income through our activities”.
He clarified
that Moov Nigeria is a member of Moov Africa starting in five countries,
Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Egypt and South Africa. “Through these countries we aim
to connect Africa’s fledgling e-commerce and trading activities by providing
effective and seamless logistics services through registered service
providers”, he said.
The promoters
have over 40 years cognate logistics experience up to the highest corporate
level and have rolled out the solution in Nigeria.
