DRIVER HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT






In any sought of transportation healthy environment is important, mainly in case of Road transportation, the whole ball game mainly depend on the driver only.

The life of the driver is very tough, the person has to move long distance ( Day /Night ), every one in hurry . The person has to receive ph call, no proper sleeping/ bathing/ eating.

The job specification might be that, but at least on last mile & 1st file we can do something.

  1. Give a proper place for driver to rest at the time of loading & unloading.
  2. Some food & water packets for the journey .
  3. At least offer some water & sitting place if other option not available.
  4. Be polite , listen some feeling of the concern.
  5. Don’t make him wait , he also might be in hurry.
  6. Make a health checkup for the concern because your entire materials on his hand.

Thinks to remember

1.       The concern his doing a job which is beneficial for the full chain.
2.       Avoid calling him several times
3.       Don’t rush on him, or don’t shout
4.    Plan beforehand , keep buffer time in hand
5.    Firefighting might lead to damages


Most of the accident occur due to sleepy driver. Thousand of life lost and cr of materials wastage due to accident.

Remember we all are human at least behave for the sake of human beings.

DIRECT TO CUSTOMER

 In the ERA of Covid 19 pandemic, business down, people at home so all we need to think about some different structure altogether. I am working in Cake and Bakery unit, people will consume, but how the product will get cater to customer point directly. The solution we have arrived is to tie up with various courier service, For Ex :- Letter gets delivered then why not materials.

Supply Chain Gap

  Supply Chain Gap , the materials are not available. Its not easier to found, I am stating the materials not available at retailers point, so in a country like India with so many diversity , its not easy to found the gap. A new way to found the same, develop a APP in Google store or Apple Store. Ask all the employee to download the same, a facility included in app, shoot a video for 30 sec, with GPS location and upload if the competitor are present in the same place or a prospective one for future.

  Export   On the topic, I have a business idea. Export for a general Indian company, people get feared 1.  Not known about the buyer 2. Not known about the export paperwork 3. Not known on a single SKU a volume order will not come  4. Buyer do not want to buy a large same product. 5. Registration on advertisement website to promote with some licenses. Solutions can be 1. A logistic company do have his own vehicle  2. A warehouse 3. A custom clearance agent Connect to Buyer and offer them a basket, Collect materials from various company, make a basket and aggregator can solve the same.
