GURUGRAM, India, Dec. 4, 2021 — Ecom Express Private Limited, one of the leading technology-enabled end-to-end logistics solutions providers to the e-commerce industry, announced the launch of its first all-women Delivery Center in Delhi today. The all-women Delivery Center is an initiative towards empowering women and providing them financial independence while strengthening the company’s Diversity and Inclusion agenda.
The company has already inducted women forces in the Delivery Center. However, it will be the first time that a 10-member team, exclusively comprising women from the ranks of Delivery Center Head to Delivery Associates, will be engaged independently in all operational activities, the company stated.
Manju Dhawan, Co-founder, Ecom Express Limited, inaugurated the all-women delivery center. She said, ”The launch of our all-women delivery center is a conscious plan and an extension of our continued effort supporting women with opportunities that empower them to grow and economically elevate them. We aim to create more and more opportunities for female team members across roles, including the front-line delivery role. We are steadfast in our approach to support them and their career progression.”
Ecom Express is also planning to establish more all-women delivery centers soon. In addition, the firm is breaking the glass ceiling by bringing in need of the hour ideas and business models. Today, Ecom Express has close to 2000 women working across its processing centers, hubs, centers, fulfillment centers, and many women bikers as delivery associates across the country.
“I am pursuing my graduation, and I look forward to creating a good career for myself in the future. I was thrilled to explore this field and wondered if men can get into delivering goods, why can’t women. I have always received a positive response. In a year, I have grown in my role with Ecom Express, from a part-time delivery partner to a full-time on-roll employee,” stated Kusum Jain, Delivery Associate at Ecom Express’s all-women delivery center.
Ecom Express is looking to increase diversity across its supply chain to make it more inclusive. Several of its extensive facilities across the country have their operations for general shifts entirely run by women. Sortation and fulfillment centers, including Bilaspur (Haryana), Bhiwandi, Surat, Vijayawada, Guwahati, and others, have women staff take care of millions of shipments, contributing to a seamless e-commerce experience for customers.
Ecom Express Private Limited, headquartered in Gurugram, is a leading end-to-end technology-enabled logistics solutions provider to the Indian e-commerce industry.
