Clever, the specialist digital platform that allows logistics and international trade entrepreneurs to import through the use of data, has begun its foray into Peru so that micro, little ones and medium entrepreneurs can have “just one click” the possibility of having a new access to a business.
“We want to offer small companies, that may have the opportunity, (the possibility of) generating an import so that they can easily and quickly bring that product that is so difficult to get abroad, if they did not have the capacity and digitization to achieve it, “he said Janan Knust, Founder & CEO of KLog, in videoconference to the Peruvian media. In addition, he noted that the web space seeks for the importer to make better decisions through data, increase the profit margin and create a new world for entrepreneurship.
Thus, Broken He emphasized that the accelerated connectivity caused by the pandemic does not allow going back and pushes the entrepreneur to dare to grow his business based on two factors: the existence of a critical mass that is doing it and the possibility that someone does it before the laziness of another.
“When I see the internet, I start to channel the possibility of selling it there. You have to take into consideration that using digital platforms enables you to be able to sell to the world ”, he highlighted.
Did the crisis affect global shipping?
Knust assured that the current shortage of containers in the world has not meant a complication for the processing and transfer of merchandise, since the Tradelens system allowed Chinese agents to connect to the platform and deliver that supply of containers.
“We have managed to integrate and have a much greater offer through technology and that these shopping containers reach us easily. That is the work that we do as operators, as shippers and as freight forwarders ”, he explained.
Why land in Peru?
Knust explained that the “encouraging” reasons for its foray into the Peruvian logistics market are many. The main one is the growth of electronic commerce by 160%.
“When E-commerce grows, the entrepreneur who is at home can do it through a couple of clicks by selling on the different platforms. It is a tremendous opportunity for that product that is being sold to earn a greater margin by importing it, ”he explained.
Another factor is the important markets from which it is most imported, which are Asia, Europe and North America.
“We are importers and not creators of finished products, we need to go to these large distributors,” he specified.
Likewise, machinery, household items and medicines are the categories of major import in containers.
Benefits for Peruvian companies
According to KLog, these are some of the suggestions that small, medium and large industries should follow:
– The technological factor is not at the level of the technologies applied today, so it is recommended to bet on digitization.
– Through KLog, the process of finding a shipping company, a customs agent and local transport of goods can take only a couple of minutes.
– The centralization of data (transversal in all companies) is key to improve decision-making.
The space has among its functions to centralize the information of each operation (documents, communications and milestones), to quote online, to monitor the vessel (obtain direct data from the source), and to generate actionable intelligence through personalized reports and statistics from of the shipping history.
