The ecosystem logistics platform has been formed with the aim of creating a suitable logistics platform to develop and facilitate business interactions and improve customers’ access to the required goods and services, with the most appropriate quality, time and price. The platform was unveiled on the sidelines of a special event. This specialized event was held in the form of an exhibition on the occasion of the fifth year of the establishment of Fakher Holding. All the subsidiary companies of this holding were present at this event. A conference, workshops and specialized panels on “Infrastructure”, “Post and Logistics” and “Electronic Commerce” were held on Tuesday, January 28, at the Spinas Palace Hotel in Tehran. In recent decades, as the pace of change in the business world has increasingly increased, new concepts, approaches and methods for management have been introduced. One of these concepts is the “business ecosystem”. The business ecosystem includes a network of interconnected organizations and actors, including manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, customers, competitors, banks and insurance companies, and public and private institutions that provide the products and services needed for the survival and growth of their business. They compete with each other.

The first step to starting a new path

In the digital age, interaction plays a key role in the success of businesses,” said Mehrdad Fakher, chairman of Fakher Holding, at the opening ceremony of the ZiBoom 2022 event, which was held to unveil the ZiBoom ecosystem logistics platform. Creating a platform for developing the ecosystem of postal, logistics, e-commerce and financial technology businesses was essential. With the unveiling of this platform, Fakher Holding has taken the first step to start a new path in the country.

Develop an ecosystem in a completely democratic way

Furthermore, Reza Samizadeh, CEO of Fakher Holding, called the digital transformation a historical turning point in human life and added: “This historical transformation has changed all processes, business models and the experience of stakeholders.” In this regard, the two concepts of “platform” and “ecosystem” have entered the business literature. Defining these two concepts, he said: “The platform is a powerful platform for the business ecosystem, which is typically created by a business or enterprise and has the ability to attract a large number of participants.” Therefore, a platform can be created by one firm and different actors can play in it. On the other hand, the ecosystem can run naturally on the platform. We can actually provide the platform to create it, and one of the most important of these platforms is the platform. Samizadeh added: “Ecosystem is a dynamic community consisting of various actors of different businesses who play with each other outside the ability of an organization.” In an ecosystem, the services that stakeholders can obtain from each actor are more than the capacity of an actor; As a result, the ecosystem is a coalition of actors and customer service providers that would not normally be able to receive all of them from one actor. He emphasized: “Fakher Holding has tried to develop the ecosystem ecosystem in the last 5 years in a completely democratic way and by preserving the identity of the actors in which they cooperate and compete.” This does not mean that we want to run this ecosystem forever. We hope that Ecosystem will be able to build a democratic ecosystem using all the actors, big and small, logistics, e-commerce and fintech.

Having a central role in the ecosystem does not mean competition

 

Furthermore, Jamshid Nazemi, a member of the board of directors of Tipax Company, stated that in the business ecosystem, one of the members plays a pivotal role and coordinates the other members. He said: “This pivotal role does not mean competing with other members.” And its purpose is to direct long-term plans and investments, etc., by creating harmony among all members.

Establish a retail industry technology association

 

Farzin Ferdis, Chairman of the Innovation Economics Commission of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, expressed his satisfaction that with the presence of key players and leaders of the retail industry and those working in the value chain of this industry, an ecosystem meaning regulator is being formed, said: Along with other collections he has put together, he has asked the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture to establish the Association of Retail Industry Technologies. In our opinion, the place of this association in the country is empty.

Embark on an exciting and challenging journey

 

Zahed Shaykh al-Islami expressed his hope that the ecosystem could gradually find its way with this first step, adding: “It is not possible without the support and empathy of all actors in this industry.”
