Supply Chain Point: Solving Logistics Challenges with Nish George

Kevin chats with Nish George, CEO of Fetch Fulfillment, on this episode of The New Warehouse Podcast, recorded at Supply Chain Point 2025. Nish’s journey from FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) fanatic to logistics disruptor is anything but typical. With a background that includes operations roles and time at Amazon, Nish brings an unconventional, systems-level mindset to the industry—one shaped as much by personal mission as professional ambition. 

In this conversation, he shares how deeply human experiences and a love of optimization led him to acquire a 3PL and set out to transform last-mile delivery. From AI that audits timecards via security footage to a future of “red blood cell” package delivery systems, Nish walks us through his strategic vision—and the real-world leadership lessons he’s learned on the warehouse floor.

Solving Logistics Challenges: A Mission Bigger Than Money

What happens when you hit your financial independence number, and it makes you miserable? For Nish, that moment sparked a bigger question: what’s worth dedicating his life to? Logistics became his “worthy adversary.” After being inspired by his legally blind, deaf sister-in-law, Grace, Nish wanted to build something that mattered.

“How can I even stand in the same room as this girl who has—with so little that she’s been given—created all this good? How can I just sit there and do nothing?”

That realization turned into a personal call to action. The complexity and dysfunction of global logistics exposed during the COVID pandemic became the mountain he chose to climb. “There’s just an ocean of problems here. We have really messed up logistics networks, as you can tell, and we all saw during COVID.”  He’s not interested in incremental fixes. He’s here to rebuild the system from the inside out, and the first step was buying a 3PL.

A Transhumanist Approach to Solving Logistics Challenges

Nish didn’t start with warehouse experience; he’d never touched a pallet. But with a strategic framework borrowed from transhumanist philosophy, he’s solving logistics challenges the way billionaires pursue immortality: by tackling interconnected problems one at a time. “I’m approaching all these problems from the demand side. I always think, ‘What is the problem I’m trying to solve?’ And it’s always the case that the solutions exist, but nobody is stitching them together in the right way.”

He believes the end state of last-mile delivery will resemble a circulatory system, not a hub-and-spoke model. “Ultimately, when someone orders something off of a shelf, that item should pop off… onto a little red blood cell inspired thing… straight from that shelf to the consumer’s door… through a closed circulatory system and drop it off.” To control that flow, he needed control over the shipper. So, he raised a search fund, found a 3PL, and acquired it all within a matter of months. Fetch Fulfillment, formerly Fusion Fulfillment, became the focal point of his disruptive roadmap.

Real Leadership Requires Growth and Grit

If the acquisition was strategic, the human side was anything but calculated. Nish faced culture shock when transitioning from a tech office to frontline leadership. The emotional load, past traumas within his team, and a lack of structure compelled him to evolve as a leader.

He quickly learned that fairness and trust were non-negotiables. When one employee quit over a 50-cent wage gap, it wasn’t about the money—it was about perceived equity.

“The best outcome is everybody in the organization says if you put all the pay on the wall, ‘I wish I were paid more, but gosh darn it, that’s fair.’”

That moment triggered a complete cultural reset. Nish rehired nearly the entire staff and built new systems focused on transparency, accountability, and employee dignity.
