Moglix History - How it started?
Moglix had a beginning in the B2B e-commerce domain and over time concentrically diversified into enterprise procurement and contracting SaaS verticals, with agility to respond to customer challenges in the manufacturing sector. Over the past decade, when everybody was focusing on solving problems of end consumers, Rahul Garg, the CEO & Founder, Moglix was looking to find pain points of businesses and ways to resolve them.
Being brought up in Faridabad, a key manufacturing cluster in the country, Rahul had a first-hand account of a new wave of opportunities for the country’s manufacturing sector as well as the challenges facing it. During his stint with Google, where Rahul was heading AdX India, SEA, and Korea, he had the opportunity to collaborate with enterprises on advertising and explore how it was enabling new market opportunities for businesses.
Building on one of the conversations that he had with his colleagues and community, he shifted base from Japan to Singapore, which was the beginning of his new journey. With deeper research, he envisaged the idea of leveraging technology enablement for the manufacturing sector in India and upgraded the search-based model of advertising to a more advanced transaction-based model to impact distribution and supply chain. This led to the birth of Moglix in 2015.
Moglix started with a simple statement in 2015: "How can we re-imagine B2B commerce and supply chain with technology?". Rahul Garg, the CEO & Founder of the company envisaged that they could make a positive difference that way. They chose to build an enterprise that would leverage technology to reinvent B2B commerce and supply chains in India. The company entered a segment that had not seen innovation in a long while, and that is how the B2B e-commerce startup came into being.
It scaled the e-commerce platform of moglix.com for industrial supplies that today encompasses 300,000+ SKUs spanning 40+ product categories and 25,000+ pin codes. On the back of the success of the e-commerce platform, Moglix Business expanded into the enterprise procurement vertical that caters to 3000+ manufacturing companies and over 5,00,000 SMEs spread across India, Singapore, the UK and UAE.
"The institutional learning helped us gain an astute understanding of complexities in contracting and fulfillment, following which we globally built our first product in contract management under the Moglix SaaS label. We collaborated with the world’s largest FMCG company Unilever to co-create iCAT, the software product that automated and transformed its procurement contracting process by impacting 1,500-plus procurement professionals, operating across 100-plus countries, managing $20 billion annually.", said Rahul Garg, owner of Moglix.

Having created one of India’s first B2B e-commerce ecosystems, it next turned its attention to resolving the challenges of the supplier community through its product Supplier Portal. The Cataloging Portal followed next. All these products in the SME segment were launched within a space of 5 months.
In the enterprise segment, Moglix Business achieved its first break-through with the development and launch of its ERP integrated platform for manufacturing companies to optimize their procurement of MRO items, i.e. Buyers Portal. As Moglix Business continued to move forward in its journey, the company continued to learn about the business pain points emanating from the use of legacy applications for enterprise commerce.
The next leap into SaaS offerings came with the development of iCAT, the company's flagship SaaS product, built to simply contract creation and enable effective contract management for procurement organizations. Their journey in SaaS continued when they decided to roll out iCAT to global firms. One of the first customers was a large FMCG player, Unilever. As on date, iCAT from Moglix SaaS is being used globally by 1500+ buyers at Unilever and impacting $20 billion in value.
"For instance, we learned that enterprises that used CLM solutions available in the market continued to grapple with challenges in technology adoption by users.

By doing so it was able to nudge enterprises to adopt our contracting solutions from Moglix SaaS and in turn, optimize their existing solutions.", said Rahul Garg, owner of Moglix.

Moglix - Startup Challenges Faced

Following are the major challenges that Moglix has resolved for its enterprise customers in the domains of B2B supply chain and e-commerce:
- Manual Ordering Process resulting in an inefficient and error-prone process for placing MRO orders
- Compliance & Approvals Internal PO journey through multiple stakeholders for authorization is complex and time-intensive.
- Fragmented Supplier Base resulting in variance in quality standards, high rejection rates, and steep procurement costs
- Fragmented Catalogs of Line Items resulting in diverse and incomplete MRO catalogs scattered across silos
- Asymmetric Information on Invoicing leading to gaps across data verticals of invoicing and payment
