Company Profile
XpressBees– a logistics company started in 2015 – is amongst the fastest growing companies of its
sector. While we started off rather humbly in the space of ecommerce B2C logistics, the last 5 years

service logistics organization reflects itself in our new lines of business like 3PL, B2B Xpress and cross
border operations.
Our strong domain expertise and constant focus on meaningful innovation have helped us rapidly evolve
as the most trusted logistics partner of India. We have progressively carved our way towards best-in-
class technology platforms, an extensive network reach, and a seamless last mile management system.
While on this aggressive growth path, we seek to become the one-stop-shop for end-to-end logistics
solutions. Our big focus areas for the very near future include strengthening our presence as service
providers of choice and leveraging the power of technology to improve efficiencies for our clients.
