Transport app Vahak sees rapid growth in Punjab

Vahak, which claims to be India’s most-trusted transport community, has been rapidly increasing its platform user base in Punjab since the pandemic began in 2020. Bengaluru-based Vahak is India’s largest open and free transport platform, enabled by artificial intelligence. This digital community enables direct connections between all logistics players, fostering India’s largest ecosystem of small and medium transport enterprises and lorry owners.

Speaking about growth since the pandemic, Karan Shaha, chief executive and co-founder of Vahak, said, “Using the Vahak app, Punjab truckers were able to function even during the pandemic, making critical supplies available. Now, they are witnessing up to 25-26 days of inter- and intrastate runs as compared to 15-17 days earlier. This has resulted in consistent growth in our user base over the last year, with load postings showing a 100% increase and lorry posting going up by over 40%. We are seeing the highest demand coming in for containers, trucks, and LCVs.”

Enabling truck and load booking at 0% commission, Vahak is India’s first B2B transport community platform that helps match loads with the right sectoral requirements for trucks, containers, light commercial, and other specialised vehicles instantly. Safe and secure escrow payments and GST, Aadhaar-verified users on the platform are attracting Punjab logistics players to adopt the Vahak app, especially for load transportation of fast-moving consumer goods, steel, chemical, packaging, and allied industries.
