FarEye, a carrier-agnostic SaaS platform, is targeting the multi-billion dollar GCC e-commerce market. The company is expecting to fulfil about 30% of its revenue from the region. With its new technology designed for shipment companies for freight visibility, FarEye’s predictive technology integrates with IoT and ELD devices, and supports enterprises by reducing significant costs in logistics. The technology helps shippers (retailers and manufacturers) predict when their freight will arrive at its destination by analysing location data from trucking companies, weather and traffic information, as well as information about wait times at warehouses.

With high levels of disposable income, internet and smartphone penetration, e-commerce is transforming the retail landscape in the GCC region. Customer convenience and logistics are at the heart of the industry and define the runway for the organisations in the region. FarEye supports businesses with optimising and simplifying the movement of goods – to ensure that they reach the end-customer with speed and efficiency. The market for ecommerce is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 30% from US$ 5 billion in 2015 to US$ 20 billion by the end of 2020. *

FarEye is enabling Digital Logistics for the world’s largest retailer, Walmart, leading logistics company, and the regional e-commerce giant, Noon.com. The UAE and Saudi Arabia will be the two key markets for FarEye’s e-commerce sector activity in the region.

Commenting on the firm’s success in the region, Gautam Kumar, COO of FarEye said, “With the GCC transforming itself into a digital economy, and with the rapid growth of e-commerce in the region, it is essential that the logistics industry continues to innovate. With the increase in the popularity of e-shops and delivery companies, the logistics e-commerce business keeps growing. It faces more and more challenges, as the customers need companies to be quick and increase their logistics performance more than ever before. Logistics firms need to embrace technology-driven solutions in order to stay relevant. We are proud to support firms such as Noon.com and Walmart in their digital transformation to focus on speed and efficiency.”

“We receive requests every day from companies in the region looking for the right type of technology to succeed in e-commerce logistics,” he concluded.

A simple drag and drop feature, enables enterprises to reduce their go to market time with new innovative offerings.

Commenting on this innovative programme, Kumar said, “We help organisations champion operational efficiency and customer experience by digitalising logistics, which not only helps real-time tracing but also adds a predictability layer to the processes making it more receptive. FarEye is uniquely designed to support regional logistic operations by easy and quick configuration for processes in each region. We are empowering the logistics & distribution wings of enterprises across industries, by breaking down operational silos and enabling multi-enterprise collaboration, helping organisations to champion operational efficiency and customer experience.”
