Transportify Gears Up for the Holiday Rush

Press release: 

We all know too well that the holiday season can be problematic amid higher demand for consumer products and the capability to distribute them on time.

Through the years we have seen time and time again how the horrendous traffic in Metro Manila compounds this problem. For many of holiday gift-givers and the would-be Santas, making their loved ones wait is simply not acceptable.

Fortunately, this can be addressed by a few logistics providers that can help move things around the metro.

Transportify now gives the market a cheaper and more efficient alternative for their on-demand logistics needs.  

A mobile and web application that connects customers with qualified independent contractors (driver partners), Transportify is the ideal logistics solution for delivering anything within Metro Manila and even surrounding areas. With a pool of over 1,500 driver-partners in less than 5 months of operations in the Philippines, Transportify has the network and capacity to address on-demand logistics not only during holidays but all year round.

For MPVs, customers only need to shell out P250 for the first 3 kilometers and P20 for every km thereafter. Need a bigger vehicle? No problem, they also have L300s that start at P600 for the first 3kms and P30 for every km thereafter.

Noel Abelardo, Head of Business Program, said: “We want to help move things faster and more efficiently in Metro Manila this holiday season. Transportify will help business customers and even individuals manage their logistics needs so they can focus on things that really matter to them. Our value proposition for on-demand logistics needs is better than what is available in the market."

With Transportify, delivery needs for holiday is no longer worrisome. Yes, even with the phenomenal Metro Manila traffic. Transportify will cater to the special needs of its customers efficiently and on time.

Founded by Inspire Ventures and Ardent Capital, Deliveree (known in the Philippines as Transportify) is a mobile and web app that allows you to book and manage pickups and deliveries of almost anything in select metro areas across Southeast Asia. Its marketplace connects businesses and individuals with qualified drivers and their vehicles to provide affordable and trustworthy service according to the company’s strict quality standards.

Transportify is now in the Manila!

Transportify is now in Manila! Transportify is an on-demand logistics application available in mobile and web app. Both individuals and businesses may benefit from this logistics solution. Definitely reliable and cost efficient!

The main objective of Transportify is to help small to medium enterprises (SMEs) to lower logistics cost. With this, Transportify offers affordable rates wherein the customer only pays for what they need.

Known as Deliveree in Thailand and Indonesia, Transportify was launched in the Philippine market last July. It now has 45 people manning its Manila office. So far, it has more than 2,000 registered accounts in just a few weeks. With barely three months’ worth of operations in the country, Transportify already has a pool of 850 driver-partners in Metro Manila. Over time, it hopes to expand its fleet for ground logistics. At present, its fleet includes Sedans, Hatchbacks, MPVs for Economy, MPVs for Large Load and L300s but this will be expanded in the coming months to include more vehicle options such as motorcycles, pickup trucks, and closed vans. 

Helping small and medium enterprises (SMEs) lower their operating costs in the area of logistics is Transportify’s main objective. As a value proposition, Transportify customers need only pay for the distance covered by the delivery and extra services required.

Transportify has 900 driver-partners and growing. For Economy, the rate starts at P220 for the first 3 kilometers and P20 for every kilometer thereafter. For Large Load, the rate starts P270 for the first 3 kilometers and P20 for every km thereafter. Meanwhile, L300s rate starts at P600 for the first 3kms and P30 for every km thereafter. Plus, this is the only app that offers Extra Services such as Special Help by Driver and Extra Helpers.

Unlike traditional couriers, Transportify’s mobile and web app lets you book a driver for same-day delivery requirements. It also accepts pre-scheduled bookings up to two weeks in advance. It also has a live tracking feature so customers can pinpoint the precise location of their driver and the estimated time of arrival at any stage during the delivery.

The company, just like other transportation apps present in the market today does not own vehicles or physical assets, but an app that connects customers to drivers. It charges drivers a commission of 15% only.

“Since we don’t have to spend for maintenance of these vehicles and salaries of the drivers, we have relatively lower overhead costs. This allows us to provide our customers a service that is cost-efficient and competitive compared to what is already available in the market,” said Kim.

Transportify Philippines is powered by Deliveree which was founded in 2014 by Inspire Ventures and Ardent Capital – both well-established venture builders in Southeast Asia. Backed with $2-million seed funding and from its principal shareholders, Transportify continues to expand the business by continuously providing lower logistics costs to SMEs and significantly growing its area of service coverage in its current markets.
