Bengaluru, Aug 2 On-demand logistics company Porter on Wednesday announced leadership restructuring where Uttam Digga, Co-Founder of Porter, has assumed the role of CEO while Pranav Goel has transitioned to the role of Executive Vice Chairman.

Founded in 2014, Porter has serviced over 1.3 crore customers across 19 cities in the country, with a workforce of 2,600 employees. The company has over 5 lakh owner-drivers.

“We now embark on a new chapter of exponential growth and expansion and there could be no better time than now to make some strategic leadership role realignments,” said Goel.
