Overview of the destination
It is seen that everyday loads of products are delivered throughout the country
using various vehicles. At times, it becomes a burden when we cannot find safe and
proper vehicles to transport heavy goods. And thus, an app called ‘’Truck Lagbe’’ was
introduced promising for an instant solution of such problems with logistics in business.
This app aims to develop a connection between the receiver of the service and the truck
owner or the agency- certifying the safe delivery of the goods to their proper destination.

Truck Lagbe was founded in the year 2016 on 1st June by Mr.Anayet Rashid-
who is also the CEO of the company and Mr.Meer Hossain Ekram (COO) are the key
developers of the app. The app Truck Lagbe promises that one can hire a truck at any
time by setting their desired location of products’ delivery. Till today’s date the app has
two parts: one is for truck owners and the other is for shippers. The part for the truck
owner allows the truck to be registered under the app and the business owners are
provided with free GPS to track their products till they are delivered.

The idea of developing this suddenly clicked Mr.Anayet Rashid while he was
handling his own business when it came to delivery. He noticed a significant gap in the
expenses between his goods delivered by his own transport and those of transport
agencies. He contacted local ports to look at the end of it- while doing it the idea of
connecting truck owners to the customers through the online portal hit him. He shared
this idea with his friend and contacted the truck agencies who seemed to be highly
interested.

Initially, Truck Lagbe faced some difficulties as they had limited source of
revenue and thus they faced financial crisis. Once the project grew, it was funded by
seven more partners. It is seen that bKash and Robi have extended their hands to work
as the tracking service partner and financial partner. Currently, Truck Lagbe is funded by
five investors: The Aria Group, Interplay, Betatron, Mount Parker and RC. Other details
are elaborated in the entire report. (Ahmed Fahad, YouTube 2023).

Competitive analysis
TruckLagbe is a one of the leading logistics companies in the transportation and
supply chain industry in Bangladesh. TruckLagbe might be one of the leading
companies when it comes to needing a truck for transportation of goods from one place
to another- it has some competition with the brands that fall under the same agenda as
well as satisfying customers’ needs and expectations. And for such a reason, to assess
its competitive position: we conducted a competitive analysis by examining key
competitors including both direct and indirect competitors.
First, let us brief about the direct competitors who are working in the same market
with the same agenda. Some of the direct competitors of TruckLagbe are:

● Loop Freight: It is one of the largest logistics companies in Bangladesh that


shares the same agenda as TruckLagbe. Loop Freight aims to transform the
conventional trucking market into a tech driven marketplace.

● Digi Truck Bangladesh: Digi Truck Bangladesh endeavors to improve the


quality of life for countless people by reshuffling the shipment process and
integrating a range of modern technological tools.

● Ship and carry: It is an app based marketplace where it allows truck owners
to choose their desired load of goods to carry. (n.b, 2020)

Secondly ,let us brief about the indirect competitors which illustrates that a
business that gives away different goods and services targets the same clients’ needs
as TruckLagbe. Like traditional offline logistics in Bangladesh pose indirect competition.
Also, companies like Goin and Chaldal offer logistics and delivery services that may
overlap with TruckLagbe offerings.

● The app is much friendlier where trucks can be booked within fingertips.

● The bookings that are made through them are instant.

● The tracking section provides real time when it comes to tracking the truck.

● TruckLagbe offers many logistics and transportation services like mini


trucks, large trucks and cargos as well.

Campaign theme and source


The world is evolving every day and so is Bangladesh. If we look back and take a
look at the glimpses of early 80s even in 90s- the fact of being an entrepreneur was like
finding few fish in an ocean. Since then, the number of entrepreneurs have increased
at a drastic rate- but if we look at it carefully, the majority of the entrepreneurs that are
considered successful have access to few logistic services that may come in handy at
any moment. But, we do believe problems do not arise by addressing a sign rather it
arrives out of the blue when we are least expecting it. There are a lot of entrepreneurs
around who do not have access to a lot of things when they need the most, like
problems with logistics. By doing a little research, we came to know that the majority of
the entrepreneurs faced problems with logistics- when they needed their products in a
specific time they could not get it delivered due to problems with their agents being
occupied. We gathered the knowledge and implemented this on an advertisement that
we made. Where we have featured a female entrepreneur receives a call from her
agent who says that her products cannot be shipped out to her for the next five days
because all of her delivery agents are preoccupied. As a result she is tense regarding
her business- at that very moment someone notices and gives her a suggestion which
is introducing her to an app called TruckLagbe ; where she can get herself a truck just
by calling through the app in seconds which makes her life quite easy. We have also
came up with a slogan according to the advertisement which is –

‘’এইভাবেই আমরা থাকতে চাই প্রতিটি উদ্যোক্তার পাশে পণ্য পরিবহন এর যেকোনো প্রয়োজনে সাথে আছে
TRUCKLAGBE’’

This slogan states that it does not matter how tough the situation arrives for the
entrepreneurs when it comes to logistics- TruckLagbe will be by their side under any
circumstances at any hour of the day. We plan on making the source of this
advertisement media based especially in social media- as people are more inclined to
social media nowadays, people can easily find out about TruckLagbe easily and can
take their services at any moment.
