The first is COD services made available throughout the region. The second is order fulfilment. The third service it provides is that of a leading E-commerce enabler in Saudi Arabia. WiMo was founded in 2017 by Mohamed Bahaa and Wissam Aboueida. From its inception, the company has relied heavily on advanced technologies to fully automate the logistics operations of several local courier delivery majors and those companies which have their own fleet of vehicles for deliveries. The USP of the company is its state-of-the-art logistics automation capability and solution. WiMo has since leveraged this strength to provide several businesses of various sizes and vastly different areas of operations Cloud-based software systems that help manage and track last-mile deliveries.
WiMo is currently in its seed stage and raised $500,000 in early-2019. This funding round was led by the Dubai Angel Investors or DAI. DAI traditionally invests in technology start-ups which have the potential to usher in modern solutions to age-old problems in the Gulf Cooperation Countries. Immediately after the funding was confirmed, WiMo confirmed that it was scaling up its operations across the world with special emphasis on the MENA region. Since several African nations including Algeria, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia are part of MENA, it is highly indicative that WiMo is looking very closely at the gargantuan African economy. Currently, the company offers a unified and all-in-one tracking dashboard which runs on data mining and AI to provide such essential information on route optimisation, real-time tracking of a package on its way from a pick-up to its destination and fleet optimisation. WiMo’s proprietary technology also has several other features.
Once the company’s tracking API has been integrated by a business or a courier service, they can log in and collate voluminous data which can be analysed for the betterment of their respective services and offers. Using WiMo is fairly easy. The customer has to book a shipment and a scheduled pick-up time in advance. This can be done via dedicated apps available on Apple’s App Store and Google Play, although ordering via Internet browsers is also supported. The WiMo platform will then provide the client with several courier delivery services. Once a particular courier company is selected, their agents will pick up the shipment and deliver it to the consignee. All patrons are encouraged to register with WiMo for offers and discounts which are available occasionally. Do you want to go live with WiMo in a mere 24 hours?
