Ramadan and Raya is the most anticipated peak shipping season for SouthEast Asian countries like Indonesia. In a 2022 survey, 46% of consumers preferred shopping on their mobile phones and 50% preferred in-store shopping from stores. That’s a massive demand to handle!

During peak delivery periods like Ramadan and Raya, logistics managers will feel the pinch of high demand. Their biggest concern would be to utilize their capacity to its fullest, and provide a delightful customer experience without disturbing the profit margins. Manually managing these capacities might cause serious errors, and would result in inefficiencies. So, by using dispatch management software, businesses in South East Asia, and the Middle East can make a huge difference in their delivery management.
