Just Deliveries revenues have doubled in 6 months, since the time we started our interactions with SCL.
During the initial mentoring sessions, SCL encouraged us to evaluate going asset light and that has been a game changer and create the scalability in our business.
It's great to have investors who understand supply chain and can be a great sounding board for decisions as we scale up.
The mentoring and insights provide by SCL and the mentor pool was a critical input for building scalability in Conmove’s logistics tech platform.
The guidance, encouragement and constant networking with other mentors helped us to raise capital and scale rapidly with a laser focus at early stage.
Building a logistics technology startup is a complex endeavor. There aren't many Supply chain focussed funds and Fellowships around the globe. The team at SCL standouts in their understanding of the nuances of this domain not just in the Indian context but also the global landscape.
The team has been a great sounding board while navigating through the challenges involved in the early stages of company building, be it brainstorming Go-to-market strategy, product positioning, or even iterating on fundraising or recruiting challenges. The SCL team works as your extended team to find solutions to any problems your startup may have.
Supply chain labs helped us see a bigger picture of possibilities.
We could visualise how domain agnostic we are in what we do though we started in fashion and lifestyle.
SCL also opened possibilities of a strong advisory network to raise the bar on both market reach and solution thinking.
Every conversation I have with the SCL team is useful and focused on value. At every step, they help, give advice that helps us strengthen the business.
Supply chain labs has been a turning point for us where we got early recognition from the fraternity and experienced guidance from the SCL team at a stage when our ideas and concepts were still taking shape, having that support during a crucial period lit the fuse to the rocketship that is Celcius today.
