TX Logistik and Mercitalia Test Smart Freight Cars in Combined Transport
9. December 2021Transporeon is developing the world’s largest real-time network to enable freight deliveries proactively across various transport modes. With the acquisition of Logit One, sea freight is now also included in the delivery routes covered by Transporeon Sixfold through visibility services. Freight is becoming increasingly transparent.
(Neu-Ulm/Geel) Transporeon is thus the only logistics platform with an integrated multimodal visibility offering. For Transporeon customers, this means a significant improvement in the visibility of their freight and enables proactive transport planning.
Stephan Sieber, CEO of Transporeon, comments: “Offering visibility for sea transport is a logical step for us. It shows that we take our mission of linking transport allocation with visibility solutions seriously. This allows our customers to further improve their processes and unlock new innovation potential. We are excited to welcome the Logit One family to Transporeon.”
Customers benefit from significant economies of scale through the integration of Logit One into Europe’s largest logistics platform. All users of the Transporeon platform gain transparent visibility of their freight, which standalone visibility solutions cannot provide. Today, Transporeon is already tracking transports worth over 500 million euros in real-time for customers in more than 40 countries, where 25 different languages are spoken. Logit One will further enhance the company’s existing capabilities.
“Shippers and carriers face significant challenges: The transport sector, especially at sea, needs to become greener, more flexible, and more responsive. Through the acquisition of Logit One, Transporeon enables its customers to gain visibility over international goods deliveries and to coordinate land and sea transport. We are very pleased with this step, as we share a common vision and will bring our solution to the international market,” says Frank Knoors, CEO of Logit One.
Overviews of All Shipments Across All Transport Modes
Through Transporeon’s One-Platform Approach, all customers gain immediate access to the new features and services. They benefit from an automatic integration of the ocean visibility data feed into their transport planning and execution. The Transporeon platform provides an overview of all shipments across all transport modes. Additionally, multimodal planning functions allow shippers and carriers to fully utilize available capacity and reduce CO2 emissions.
Transporeon is not just a visibility provider but acts as an all-in-one logistics platform. This is where the company’s strength lies: It supports customers at every step of the (transport) journey. The services include market intelligence, freight allocation, planning and execution, tracking/delivery confirmations, visibility, and auditing. In all these areas, Transporeon’s customers benefit from the world’s largest road carrier network. With Logit One, Transporeon strengthens its offering across all transport modes.
Tools for Better Customer Service
Amaury Luycks, Managing Director of Polytra NV (part of the Freight Group), comments on the solution: “As a well-known and recognized provider of global 4PL solutions, we offer our customers visibility and transparency in their supply chain to maintain control and respond quickly to exceptions. For us, the future of logistics providers lies in data analysis. This can change transport planning. It is no longer just reacting to what has happened. Planning becomes proactive or even predictive. We believe that logistics is not just about finding the cheapest solution, but also the most reliable, fastest, and environmentally friendly one. Our partnership with Logit One is an important building block to achieve this. The company’s visibility solution gives us the tools to provide better service to our customers and even to our customers’ customers,” he says.
