What Rapid Multimodal Logistics does

Rapid Multimodal Logistics Limited is an India-domiciled, BSE-listed (bom:544237) integrated freight intermediary that combines road and rail transportation to move cargo across the country. Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Kilpauk, Chennai, the company operates three core service modules — Road Freight, Rail Freight, and Cargo Shipment — that together enable door-to-door multimodal movement connecting industrial hubs, container terminals, ports, and manufacturing clusters. Its rail capability is enabled by a Business Associate partnership with Container Corporation of India Limited (CONCOR), which provides access to India's national railway container network; road services cover FTL nationwide movement. Customers span nine verticals: manufacturing, FMCG, infrastructure, pharmaceuticals, iron & steel, paper, glass, construction materials, and chemicals.

The company generates revenue on a quote-based, transactional fee model for freight movement, with pricing customized by cargo type, distance, weight, and mode. Go-to-market is direct B2B sales targeting both enterprise and mid-market customers, supplemented by a corporate website with service pages, newsletter signup, and a "Request A Quote" contact form. The technology stack is operationally focused — real-time cargo tracking, 24/7 support, end-to-end shipment coordination — and does not include disclosed AI/ML components. Leadership is promoter-family controlled: Narayan Agarwal (Managing Director), Summit Agarwal (Executive Director & CFO), and Manoj Goel (Executive Director), with Nidhi Agarwal as Non-Executive Director and two independent directors. With 11-50 employees, the firm operates as a small listed intermediary rather than an asset-heavy carrier, relying on CONCOR's network and contracted road capacity rather than owning a large fleet.
