How lead-distance correction helped in saving ₹5.1Cr in freight costs for a leading cement manufacturing company in India
The customer is one of India's leading cement manufacturers. In cement logistics, freight is paid on lead distance, the distance between origin and destination. An overstated lead distance results in overpayment on every trip made on that lane. And because cement moves in high volumes across thousands of lanes, even small errors in lead distance can compound into significant overpayments.

What's in this case study?
Outdated lead-distance master data was inflating freight payments across thousands of cement lanes. Freight Tiger corrected addresses at source with its Address Validator API and verified distances against actual driven routes
The result: Saved ₹5.1 Cr on a one-time lead correction across all STO and Trade customers, with WhatsApp-based consignee confirmation keeping the data accurate going forward.
