On the Move Systems, Inc. (OMVS) Seeking Retail Pa
Post# of 1314
On the Move Systems, a company pursuing new online tools to reduce costs and increase convenience in the tourism and travel industry, as well as new opportunities in trucking, this morning said it is exploring the possibility of developing partnerships with small and mid-market online retailers for exclusive use of its proposed on-demand courier service.
Similar to a recently signed deal between Hilton Hotels and Uber, under which hotel guests will use Hilton’s HHonors mobile app to request Uber rides, OMVS is considering offering a joint shared economy partnership with small and mid-market online retailers. This partnership model will enable retailers to utilize OMVS’s courier system as a faster and more cost-effective delivery option than national shipping companies such as FedEx (NYSE: FDX), UPS (NYSE: UPS) and DHL.
“Hilton’s deal with Uber shows the shared economy business model has been truly accepted and embraced by America’s top corporations,” OMVS CEO Robert Wilson stated in the news release. “This will open the door for other on-demand services, such as our courier business, to approach established companies and have credibility in the marketplace. We’re proposing small and mid-market online retailers partner with us as their courier service, giving them additional delivery channels to cut delivery times, satisfy customers and provide cost-effective last-mile solutions.”
OMVS’s possible entrance into the small specialty stores and e-commerce retailer sector, a market estimated at $39 billion, would provide the company an opportunity to carve a solid niche in an arena dominated by giants such as Amazon (NASDAQ: AMN) and Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT). Collectively, smaller industry players have grown combined annual web sales an impressive 14.4 percent, a rate only 1 percent below that of the biggest competitors in the market.
