Quickshipper: We are Growing Fast and Adding Ten New Customers a Week

"We are growing fast and adding ten new customers per week," said the founder of the Georgian technology startup Quickshipper, who presented themselves to investors and viewers at the 500Georgia Demo Day today.

Quickshipper is a platform through which businesses can manage and accommodate incoming orders from any channel, communicate with customers and analyze results.

As the founders of Quickshipper, Mariam Akhvlediani, Levan Kiladze and Ilia Gijashvili note, their many years of experience in adjacent fields pushed them to create the platform.

"Based on our other joint startup, Elvis, we have accumulated a lot of experience in the fields of e-commerce and logistics. That's why we decided to integrate this knowledge into a timely large-scale project that would be applicable internationally. We analyzed the routes taken by different couriers and found that with the right algorithm and optimal distribution, couriers could achieve the same results by covering 20% less distance. Also, we saw that businesses needed the help of additional couriers during busy periods", the founders noted.

As it turns out, the founders came up with the idea of creating Quickshipper in 2021, and they started testing it and studying market readiness in January 2022.

"It is through the testing regime that we have come so far, and by the end of the year we will offer our customers a completely new product, the like of which does not exist in Georgia and the region. The practice of similar software at this stage is mainly in the American market, and we are developing the product in such a way that it is in no way inferior to them. We think that the Georgian product will be very successful both in Georgia and abroad,'' the founders explain.
