Entrepreneur Magazine is glad to present Rajesh Yabaji, 28, CEO and Co-founder, Blackbuck who made it to our 35 under 35 special.

Within around 10 months of launching operations in April 2015, Bengaluru-based BlackBuck became India's biggest logistics company in business-to-business full truck load (FTL) freight transportation category. The inter-city logistics start-up works on a marketplace model by aggregating truck fleet owners and improving their utilization time by 30 per cent with real time visibility of the demand and movement of trucks across India.
