Logistics Models: Delhivery vs Ecom Express

Delhivery uses a distributed model rather than a hub and spoke model, allowing packages to be routed directly to customers without delays. It has converted all of its branches into hubs, making it easier to plan cost-effective delivery routes. Delhivery offers services like global shipping, cargo shipping, and fulfilment centers. Its clients include e-commerce companies. It has over 21,000 employees including co-founders from IIM and IIT. Delhivery is better than competitors because it was an early entrant, has received funding rounds, has an integrated system, and automates processes.

1. Business Model

Hub and Spoke model is not used. Delhivery uses distributed model. They can route
packages straight to the customers avoiding delays. Hub and spoke model is used when
there are multiple locations sourcing, with the central location called as hub. The location
provides a single point of contact, to the client. A spoke is delivery centre setup in the
country providing services to the client’s customers in local and customized manners in line
with culture and other legislatives requirements of the country. The spokes works closely
with the clients local offices and report the performance to the clients.

1. Business Model
Omnichannel also spelled omni-channel is a multichannel approach to sales that
seeks to provide customers with a seamless shopping experience, whether they're
shopping online from a desktop or mobile device, by telephone, or in a brick-and-
mortar store. An omnichannel approach means there's integration between
distribution, promotion and communication channels on the back end.
For example, a customer service representative interacting with a customer in a
store can immediately reference the customer's previous purchases and preferences
as easily as a customer service rep on the phone or a customer service webchat rep.
Or the customer can use a desktop computer to check inventory by store on the
company's website, buy the item later with a smartphone or tablet, and pick it up at
a chosen location.
