Grab and Ninja Van tie up for regional logistics services

Ninja Van’s services will be available on the Grab app via GrabExpress in Q2 2019.

Express logistics company Ninja Van and Grab Inc. have established a strategic partnership that will see Ninja Van’s logistics services integrated on the Grab app via GrabExpress, Grab’s on-demand parcel and courier delivery service, an announcement revealed.

The partnership aims to better serve the needs of small and medium-businesses (SMBs), social commerce sellers and consumers. Ninja Van’s logistics services will be available on the Grab app via GrabExpress in Q2 2019, and the service will be rolled out in phases across the region.

The regional partnership expands GrabExpress’s delivery services beyond its on-demand and same-day parcel and courier delivery service to include more options like nationwide scheduled deliveries, the firm said, adding that it also enlarges GrabExpress’s regional coverage to allow for inter-city deliveries.

GrabExpress, which is available in 150 cities across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam and Indonesia, allows consumers, e-commerce platforms and social commerce sellers to send and receive parcels easily.

Likewise, the regional partnership with Grab will allow Ninja Van to make its services available to Grab’s large user base in these countries, especially SMBs and social selling communities.

As part of the strategic partnership, Grab has invested in Ninja Van. Ninja Van will also work towards adopting GrabPay across its platform and collaborate to roll-out lending and insurance products offered by Grab Financial Group to its merchants and delivery partners.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
