Business and Logistics Update

Business and Logistics Update

This webinar will be presented by Karzo, was founded in 2016 and now operates the largest virtual truck fleet in Myanmar, providing goods transportation for corporate enterprises & SMEs who want to move their cargo anywhere in the country. Karzo is the first platform in Myanmar to connect fleet owners, 3PLs and commercial logistics providers, directly and easily with businesses needing reliable, trackable distribution and delivery of their goods across the country.

With the ongoing political instability throughout the country the short-term outlook remains very challenging. According to the World Bank Myanmar's economy is expected to shrink by 10% this year, a sharp reversal from the October 2020 prediction of 5.9% growth. Myanmar's PMI has plunged to 27.7 with many factories grinding to a halt. With the continuing global Covid-19 pandemic, the blocking of the Suez Canal by vessel Ever Given in May and a general lack of vessel capacity, Myanmar is facing a raw material and import/export crisis that is starting to impact all sectors in some way.
