Since its inception, WIZ has been growing steadily. With new offices opening in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Vietnam, and a few more significant markets, WIZ is currently growing throughout Asia and the Middle East and has successfully brought on board seasoned business titans. In the last six months, the platform has expanded the existing offices and opened new ones around India.

It will soon launch a 20,000-square-foot tech and R&D centre in Chennai, which will have room for 200 staff. To further enhance its AI/ML, blockchain, and IoT capabilities and deliver intelligent and connected cross-border shipping, it also wants to open two more centres in Bengaluru and Singapore.

In the upcoming year, it is planning to increase its headcount and sales. The company intends to take its services to 15 more countries in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa by the end of 2022, with Singapore and Dubai acting as regional hubs.
