Shipsy Announces First ESOP Buyback

Shipsy, a leading SaaS-based smart logistics management provider, recently announced its first ESOP buyback. The buyback was open to all existing, full-time employees of Shipsy who have completed at least one year of full-time employment.

Shipsy's early-stage investors have already realised the significant value in the organisation's secondary and buyback transactions in the past one and a half years.

Shipsy is clocking a growth rate of 2.5x YoY. It recorded its recurring revenue growth of over 100% and grew its customer base by 75% last year. To scale its operations, the SaaS provider is rapidly expanding its employee pool and hiring top talent from across the globe.

In a span of fewer than seven years, Shipsy’s people strength has crossed more than 350. Also, to ensure rapid adoption of its technology across the globe, Shipsy is partnering with global system integrators, evangelists, and independent software providers.

Soham Chokshi, CEO and Co-founder of Shipsy said: "We have seen tremendous growth in the last few years. Our success is a combined effort of each of us at Shipsy, and celebrating it together is a part of our cultural DNA.

"We extended the buyback option to make these victories sweeter for our employees and their families, who have been consistent partners in our success. It is just one way of expressing our gratitude for the value they bring to the company."
