My organisation

Yantra Packs is driving the transition toward sustainable and cost-efficient supply chains through reusable packaging and asset pooling solutions. Based in India, we offer a rental-based model that enables businesses to access high-quality, durable packaging assets—such as containers, pallets, and material handling equipment—without the burden of ownership. Our proprietary tech platform, Trakkia, ensures end-to-end visibility, asset tracking, and operational optimisation. By replacing single-use packaging with a shared-use ecosystem, we help enterprises lower their carbon footprint, improve logistics efficiency, and unlock working capital. Serving industries like automotive, FMCG, e-commerce, and manufacturing, Yantra Packs combines sustainability, technology, and scalability to build future-ready supply chains.

About me

Karan Saharan is the Founder & CEO of Yantra Packs, an India-based startup pioneering the shift toward circular, sustainable supply chains through reusable packaging solutions.

A Chartered Accountant by qualification, Karan began his professional journey with EY in 2010, where he worked across advisory and assurance. In 2015, he turned entrepreneur with DoneThing, an on-demand personal assistant platform that saw early traction and a successful exit.

In 2020, driven by a mission to eliminate packaging inefficiencies in logistics, Karan founded Yantra Packs.
