In our previous posting, we presented the challenges the fast-growing logistics market is facing, and introduced ‘dKargo’ as a novel solution. Now let’s find out more about ‘deleo’, dKargo’s key partner.

What is ‘deleo’?

‘deleo’ makes the overseas online shopping just as easy as the domestic online shopping for the users by utilizing innovative payment and delivery modules.

Founded in 2015, ‘deleo’ focuses on cross-border logistics service and IT solutions for various types of logistics. It has access to the major business networks and freight infrastructures in many countries such as China, Japan, Vietnam, Singapore, and Australia. ‘deleo’ also formed a strategic partnership with the world’s largest postal department, USPS(U.S. Postal Service) to further its access to global infrastructures.

As demand for cross-border logistics service is rapidly increasing, ‘deleo’ has significant advantage in prices compared to other international delivery service providers. Specifically, its price can be lower by as much as 50% compared to EMS offered by Korea Post. By synchronizing IT systems and optimization on service rate with the global partners, ‘deleo’ continuously strengthens its competitive pricing.

Based on the solid infrastructure, ‘deleo’ has launched ‘Kakao Pay Delivery’ service in partnership with Kakao Pay and Lotte Global Logis, aiming to be the most convenient delivery service for individual users. Also in last year, it successfully secured series C investment round with valuation at $82 million, getting a huge attention from the entire industry.

So how dKargo and ‘deleo’ would be working together?

For dKargo’s ecosystem to expand, it is crucial for the project to strategically cooperate with various partners. For this reason, we will be forming a symbiotic relationship with ‘deleo’ for being our key starting partner.

Overseas direct purchase business ‘deleo’ is focusing on is showing a growth at a substantial pace as it is aligned with the current trend. However, the logistics services available for this purpose lacks innovation in both pricing and convenience while complexity in purchasing and delivery services creates great difficulty for the users.

What if efficiency based on the trust created by dKargo can be offered?

dKargo could provide ‘deleo’ with data that is processed and based on blockchain, optimizing the delivery time and allocation of resources for the participants in our logistics network. Since we claim dKargo to be an open platform, aggressive sales to shippers and cargoes to be transported can be easily acquired based on the incentives and transparency in cargo data. If this could be leveraged properly, ‘deleo’ could achieve economies of scale with outward expansion.

In order for dKargo’s platform to root down firmly and promote the growth of its ecosystem, it is utmost important for dKargo to coordinate together with the partners as it would initiate and invigorate the platform, eventually benefits the partners in turn. As long as dKargo is able to give reasons to the other companies to join the ecosystem, such as by removing inefficiency in the logistics and bringing additional values, it would further encourage them onboard to dKargo’s platform as partners.

So far, we discussed our key starting partner ‘deleo’. In our following content, we shall take a look at how dKargo can be used in our daily lives and what benefits can be offered to the end users.

Thank you.
