Agriculture sector contributes a
lion share in Pakistan ’s
GDP. But presently Pakistan ’s
40% agricultural produce is lost because of bad logistic infrastructure. And
this company is experimenting with ways to provide logistic services to
Pakistani agriculture sector with only three to four percent loss.
Starting from four employees, it
now has over 400 people as its employs. With 700 customers including many national
and multinational companies, it takes care of whole process of logistics
including shipping, trucking and warehousing.
The company was started by Abid
Butt in 2005, who earlier worked for a French logistic giant Geodis. At that
time, in Pakistan ,
no one was available to provide end to end solution, so initial idea was to
provide all services including trucking, warehousing and shipping etc by the
same company. This led the company’s name being e2e supply chain management (pvt.) ltd. i.e. end to end supply chain management (pvt.) ltd. In 2011
butt’s company had around 76 million us dollars in annual revenues. The company
grew 1918% from 2008 to 2010 and was nominated as Pakistan ’s fastest growing private company by AllWorld network in 2012. Initial investment
in e2e supply chain management (Pvt.) ltd. was arranged by him and his friend and was 1 million rupees (nearly
20000 us dollars at that time) each.
Company’s founder Abed butt is a
LUMS graduate with a major in economics and also holds an MBA from INSEAD. After
graduating from LUMS, Pakistan ’s
leading business school, Abid worked for Maersk. Later on he joined Geodis, and
was posted in Paris .
He started his business from Karachi ,
Pakistan
