Shipsy bought Stockone to stretch its logistics SaaS from transport into warehouses

Shipsy is a full-stack SaaS platform for enterprises to manage end-to-end logistics, claiming 220+ enterprise clients, 15 crore monthly shipments and 6.54 lakh containers tracked a month.

~$33M raised in total; the last round was $23.89M led by A91 Partners in February 2022, with Sequoia's Surge and Info Edge participating.

Founded in 2015 by IIT alumni Soham Chokshi, Dhruv Agarwal, Himanshu Gupta and Sahil Arora, Shipsy built a full-stack platform for enterprise logistics management.

The undisclosed acquisition of inventory-management platform Stockone added a warehouse management system (WMS) and inventory capabilities to Shipsy's suite, letting it serve customers from transportation to fulfilment. The same month, Tata Motors agreed to buy 26.79% of Freight Tiger for Rs 150 crore and Kale Logistics raised a $30M Series B — consolidation sweeping logistics SaaS.

Shipsy says the deal expands its product portfolio, optimises operations and creates a 'holistic logistics management experience' covering warehousing, order fulfilment and operational management for enterprise customers.

Warehousing was the missing module: transport plus WMS makes Shipsy the end-to-end system enterprises ask for.

The 220+ enterprise client base gives Stockone's inventory platform an immediate distribution channel.

Rivals and automakers were consolidating logistics tech the same month — coverage is the category's arms race.

In enterprise SaaS, coverage wins: bolting warehousing onto shipping turns a point solution into the system of record enterprises won't rip out — acquisitions get you there faster than building.

As of October 2023, Shipsy was integrating Stockone's WMS into its suite, promising enterprise customers a holistic experience from transportation to fulfilment.
