Strictly Private & Confidential
3. What’s the problem that we are
looking to solve ?
The Asian heavy machinery market is highly fragmented with numerous
physical traders, producers and consumers, who are not well connected
with each other. This results in:
Lack of adequate market access and information
Hard to differentiate between genuine and fake players
Hard to determine the right price due to insufficient market bids
Owners: Expensive working capital locked in the form of idle machine
inventory
Buyers: unwanted project delays / revenue losses due to delay in
procuring right equipment at the right price
