What has been your biggest hurdle?
Currently Dfuel as diesel distribution business, lacks its own storage facilities, which leads to significant logistical challenges. Without dedicated storage, -the company rely on third-party storage providers, which can lead to increased costs and dependency. One major hurdle is ensuring reliable access to storage facilities, especially during peak demand periods or emergencies. Limited storage availability result in supply shortages or delays in fulfilling customer orders, which sometimes damages the business's reputation and customer relationships. -In addition, without control over storage facilities, the we face constraints in managing inventory levels efficiently. This lead to overstocking or understocking situations, impacting cash flow and profitability. We further struggle to implement quality control measures, risking product integrity and compliance with industry standards and regulations. In order to overcome these hurdles, we need to establish strong partnerships with reliable storage providers or gantries, implement robust inventory management systems, and prioritize flexibility and adaptability in their operations to navigate the challenges effectively, but all this needs a huge capital.
