Scaling a B2C Solar Company with an
optimised Supply Chain

SolarSquare, India's leader in residential solar, faced a scalability crisis. Their centralized inventory model caused frequent project delays (30%), high breakage of fragile panels, and a slow 15-day installation cycle. By partnering with Edgistify, they transitioned to a Hub-and-Spoke Fulfillment Network. We deployed 3 Regional Warehouses feeding 20+ Micro-Fulfillment Centers. This decentralized model reduced inventory variance to 0.2% and enabled 98% of installations within 48 hours.

Solar Logistics
Challenges: Inefficient
Network & High Costs

1
Fragile Logistics: Solar inverters and panels require specialized handling; standard 3PLs caused damage.
2
Bottlenecked Dispatch: Centralized warehousing capped their capacity at just 12 projects/day.
3
Installation Lag: Customers waited 10-15 days after payment for installation.

FAQs

We know you have questions, we are here to help

How can bottled water brands scale D2C delivery in India?

Edgistify helps you build a network of city-based fulfilment centers, using route optimisation for last-mile delivery, and standardizing processes for rapid expansion. This enables faster, cost-effective, and scalable D2C operations.

What logistics challenges do bulky products face?

Bulky items face high last-mile costs, route inefficiencies, slower scalability, and complex returns. Managing COD and reverse logistics adds further operational challenges.

How did Edgistify ensure the careful handling of fragile solar components?

Edgistify implemented comprehensive SOPs and specialized training for its warehouse teams to ensure proper storage, packing, and dispatch of fragile components, preventing damage throughout the supply chain.

What was the key factor in reducing project delays by 30%?

The key was the strategic design of a pan-India hub-and-spoke network with regional warehouses, which eliminated inefficient logistics and ensured materials were always available close to installation sites.
