Scorpion Express was established in September 2000, along with its courier division, Scorpion Couriers. Mr. J P N Singh the founder and promoter of the company had rich experience in the field of Express Cargo and Logistics management. It was observed by him that in India a lot of light weight consignments were moving in express cargo at much higher rates, and that too with only surface services. He started supporting and building specific clientele who were paying much higher for smaller consignments and were still deprived of air services.
