5 Logistics Business Success Stories [2023]

My name is Ben Elizer, and I am the Founder and President of Velocity International Group, a full-scale logistics company, offering SameDay delivery, Expediting, Distribution, Fulfillment, andmany Warehousing Services. We offer to consult and some other services as well to help our customers succeed in an ultra-competitive environment. Velocity started with 2 vans and many faces to face conversations. We now have 10+ vehicles, including trucks, and have grown to 25k+ square feet of warehouse space as well to best serve our customers.

Over the past 2 years, our revenue has grown over 300%, which has completely contributed to the great people and culture we have at Velocity. After having to move out of my apartment (because I put everything financially I had into this company), and move back into my mom’s house in my mid 20’s, it was difficult, but just 6 months later we had our first small office and warehouse space. I’m fortunate I had a support system to move back into, or else Velocity might not be here today. The business has grown ever since because of hard work, trust, and relationships. We focus on what is important.

In 2018, Ajesh Kapoor introduced SemiCab. a trucking-focused SaaS company with headquarters in Atlanta that offers transportation logistics.

He built his marketplace platform over two years, testing the predictive modeling on real datasets. The business received funding from technology, financial, and supply chain investors.

Each carrier on SemiCab's platform is vetted. This screening procedure guarantees that their insurance is up to date and that their safety record is spotless.

SemiCab makes money from the platform based on the value of the extra miles that carriers can travel on their planned route with full loads.

At the end of 2020, they started bringing on clients, and with a project value of $400,000, they managed their first loads in April 2021. Less than a year later, they are handling $1 million worth of loads each month and are still rapidly expanding.
