DISCOVEREDGE TECHNOLOGIES PRIVATE LIMITED

In their own words

EXIMNET BY DISCOVEREDGE TECHNOLOGIES PRIVATE LIMITED PRE-READ India's annual commodity imports are valued at USD 700 billion. The country has 70 million SMEs, out of which 30% actively import raw materials. These 21 million SMEs rely entirely on local brokers to handle their import needs. These brokers have limited access to supply that too in limited geographies, resulting in poor supply discovery and increased/ not efficient purchase costs. Eg- India's paper industry heavily relies on only a handful of countries for importing raw materials, with the top 5 countries accounting for over 70% of the share. Surprisingly, some medium-scale sellers from these regions have not explored the Indian market, opting to sell to other Asian countries. Meanwhile, neighbouring countries offer similar raw materials, yet only a few Indian manufacturers have ventured into these territories. There is a significant opportunity to diversify sourcing strategy and tap into untapped markets Freight costs in global trade make up 10-15% of the commodity value and are often managed by a freight forwarder or the foreign party, leading to inefficiencies in purchasing for the manufacturers. The entire process of cross border transaction is suboptimal due to opaque supply discovery and inefficient logistics, thus increasing procurement cost for Indian manufacturers by min 15%. Though there are several subscription platforms like Trade India and Export Trade for supply discovery, they don't guarantee quality and pricing. Additionally, numerous new age freight forwarders such as Cogoport and FreightHub are addressing the logistics aspects of import-export. Indian manufacturers lack an organised end-to-end solution that ensures optimal price discovery and fulfillment through an efficient supply chain. Without such a solution, they struggle to compete globally and remain at a disadvantage.
