The company provides intracity logistics services to small and big businesses, MSMEs and individual customers. Their business model is such that people can book small commercial vehicles (such as Tata Ace, Pickup etc.) to send goods or packages from one place to another through the app. In the recent past, the demand for such services in urban areas has increased rapidly.

Despite such a huge increase in revenue, the total expenses of the Porter have increased by only 50%, which has increased from ₹ 2,862 crore last year to ₹ 4,286 crore this year, which means that their income increased, more than the growth rate of expenses, which is necessary to earn profits. Along with this, the expenses related to the employees also increased by just 20% and there has been a slight increase of only 5.5% in the expenditure on marketing.

This company based in Bangalore has shown that with the right strategy and better management, logistics startups can also earn profits.
