Propelled by rapidly evolving technologies, government liberalization, and increasing demand of the market, there is significant and rapid change happening in India’s logistics sector. Gujarat, which is a major manufacturing and export market, is at the root of this change, as start-ups in the space begin to adapt to the challenges and opportunities ahead. Furthermore, Gujarat continues to maintain this drift by leading the most important industrial and export activity in the logistics ecosystem. However, partnering with a competent service provider is pivotal to garner a lucrative partnership.
Even with the shrinking margins associated with competition against the big players in the industry, the pioneering firm Jay Shakti Logistics shines above all as it believes in a sole core principle; hard work, resiliency, and passionate emotional connection to the business. Today, Jay Shakti Logistics is filling the gaps in the market that larger firms overlook. This includes the often overlooked rough logistics operations that are almost always excluded from the large players' stock. The company is an excellent example of the importance of the small firm in tackling rough, increasingly difficult logistics problems due to a long-standing presence in the region to maintain relationships and provide quality service.
A Noteworthy Journey
Founded in 2019, Jay Shakti Logistics began to operate with a mere 2.5 lakh loan, coupled with a few workers but a promising vision.
Something that started small, is now one of the most sought-after logistics services providers in the region. Shubham Detha, Managing Director, Jay Shakti Logistics remembers adversity and large obstacles, and how the company continued to thrive; even against the immense challenges presented by a pandemic like COVID-19. Shubham notes, "We are the intermediaries that make things happen - even in the hardest of times, label a pandemic or crisis, logistics does not stop."
Although Jay Shakti Logistics is firmly established in its traditional practices, it is gradually attempting to utilize new technologies to help the company’s operations. Shubham mentions that the company is leveraging artificial intelligence in its operations, including the use of apps to predict the volume and nature of the cargo so as to better arrange their resources and offer services seamlessly. “The machine learning tools give us information we never had before. It helps us predict the seasonal variances of the cargo and plan, and adjust our operations accordingly. This will help keep us competitive in a world of rapid change”, states Shubham.
Being in a hard market as a contractor, Shubham believes that survival is key. "We're not perfect, but we're always getting better. We know the value of keeping our laborers happy, we know that customer service is important, and we are always there to stay available when our clients need us the most”, emphasizes Shubham.

One of the key differentiators that makes Jay Shakti Logistics shine is its focus on safety and employees' well-being. The company ensures on a focused budget ensuring utmost safety for its team of seasoned professionals; be it helmets, shoes, or jackets. It believes that each piece isn’t just equipment but rather a lifeline.
According to Shubham, logistics is not merely about moving goods; it's about moving lives, creating opportunities, and developing relationships. "We are a team of over 100 families now, and every single one of them is part of our continued growth. We work not just for ourselves but for every single person who depends on us”, signifies Shubham.
Jay Shakti Logistics’ trajectory serves as testimony of resilience and hard work in a fast-evolving logistics industry. As the industry evolves, the company is mindful of operations improvement, expanding its suite of service offerings, and incorporating innovative technological advancements.
