Rivigo, a new-age logistics start-up, has announced that it has ordered for 1,200 medium and heavy commercial vehicles (M&HCVs) from Ashok Leyland Ltd., the largest-ever commercial order for trucks by any surface transport company for its pan-India fleet.
The purchase of the additional vehicles means that Rivigo, the fastest growing surface transport company in India, will expand its fleet size by 80 per cent to 2,700 vehicles in the next 6-7 months.
The order comprises the BOSS, a revolutionary Intermediate Commercial Vehicle (ICV) that seamlessly combines the strength and ruggedness of a truck with the comfort of a car.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Deepak Garg, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Rivigo, said: “It’s very important to us to demonstrate our commitment with action, which is why we aim to have the largest fleet in the industry. This order is a testimony of our commitment to offer the best in services and thus create value for our customers.”
With this order, Rivigo is placed among the top five in the Indian surface transport industry which is otherwise dominated by small fleet owners with an average fleet size of 5-10 trucks.
