Backstory:

The journey of Locus from being a women\'s safety application to a leading logistics optimization platform, is an interesting one. In 2015, Nishith Rastogi and Geet Garg developed RideSafe, a women\'s safety geo-tracking app to track deviations from pre-defined ride routes.

It was soon adopted by food tech companies to track deviations of their delivery staff. This gave Nishith and Geet material insight that there was clearly a lack of a decision-making system in logistics. This realization was the pivotal foresight that led to the building of Locus, an end-to-end dispatch planning and route optimization platform for supply chain enterprises.

From 2015 till date , Locus has grown by leaps and bounds, with a clear focus on innovating consistently

July 2015 - Locus was born in a 2 BHK studio apartment in Peenya, Bangalore and registered as MARA Studios Pvt Ltd. We raised our Series A round funding from Exfinity Ventures and GrowX Ventures and we launched the Dispatch IQ and TrackIQ products.

By 2018, we were a team of 100 and we reached 10 million successful customer orders.

We raised our Series B in 2020 funding led by Falcon Edge and Tiger Global, we also open our South East Asia office in Jakarta, Indonesia, Berlin in Europe and California in the USA

Our team grew to 200 in 2020 and, we opened offices in UK, Vietnam and Singapore
