From Legacy to Leadership: How Navata SCS Transformed Its Digital Presence & 4X Lead Generation

Company Overview

Navata Group has been a trusted name in India's logistics industry for over 40 years, serving 20,000+ customers with efficient freight forwarding and supply chain solutions. Built on a foundation of reliability, the company has long been a leader in road transportation, warehousing, and 3PL solutions.

Recognizing the rapid evolution of logistics and the increasing role of technology-driven supply chains, the third-generation entrepreneurs of the Navata Group launched Navata SCS. This new-age division was created to modernize logistics operations through modern supply chain solutions.

The Indian Logistics Landscape

India's logistics sector has witnessed significant growth, driven by infrastructure development, technological advancements, and increased demand for efficient supply chain solutions. In 2024, the market generated a revenue of USD 228.4 billion and is projected to reach USD 357.3 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7.7%.

This rapid expansion underscores the need for logistics companies to adopt digital transformation strategies to remain competitive and meet the dynamic needs of the market.

Despite its deep-rooted industry presence, Navata SCS faced a key challenge: establishing itself as a tech-savvy, modern supply chain brand in an industry where traditional methods still dominated. The company needed a digital transformation strategy that not only positioned it as an industry leader but also increased visibility, engagement, and lead generation among key decision-makers.

This case study highlights how Growth Associates partnered with Navata SCS to achieve these objectives and drive exceptional results.
