Locus

Overview

Locus is a logistics software company that describes its product as an agentic transportation management system for “all-mile, all-channel” delivery^[9]. On 7 October 2025 Ingka Investments, the investment arm of Ingka Group, announced it had acquired Locus; financial terms were not disclosed, and Locus is to remain operationally independent within Ingka Group with its brand and leadership, continuing to serve customers outside the group^[9]. That makes Locus one of the few last-mile vendors owned by a corporate group rather than by venture or private-equity investors.

Locus says it has operated since 2015, has optimised more than 1.5 billion deliveries for over 360 brands in more than 30 countries, and names customers including Unilever, Nestlé, CP Axtra (Makro), Blue Dart, Philip Morris International and Dairy Farm^[8]. Its core is route optimisation and real-time visibility for complex distribution networks, including the first, middle and last mile.

The considerations for buyers are pricing, which is not published, and ownership: competing retailers may want contractual assurances about data separation now that the vendor belongs to a corporate group. Locus’s own savings figures, such as US$320 million in logistics costs saved, are company claims^[8].
