Partnership Aims to Make Container and Asset Tracking More Affordable, Accessible, and Sustainable
Netmore Group, a leading global operator of IoT networks, announced today a partnership with Zenze, a provider of supply chain management and visibility solutions, to offer low-cost wireless infrastructure for tracking and cargo monitoring applications at ports, terminals, distribution centers, warehouses, and cargo owner locations across the globe.
Powered by Netmore’s managed IoT network infrastructure, Zenze offers both custom-built, and local LoRaWAN networks together with data services for the tracking of refrigerated cargo, dry cargo, and other container- and asset-types commonly found throughout logistics sites.
In the current phase of the partnership, the companies are focused on deploying LoRaWAN networks in collaboration with ports and terminals participating in the Cargo Visibility Network (CVN) – a unique network infrastructure designed specifically for the delivery of cargo visibility services. The following phases of the partnership will introduce a comprehensive ecosystem of devices and sensors optimized for operation on the Netmore network. These low-cost and environmentally friendly devices for real-time location, condition monitoring, surveillance, and security monitoring will disrupt the pricing dynamics of port logistics, making IoT more cost-effective, accessible and sustainable.
“As global shipping volumes continue to rise and real-time data becomes more important for driving business efficiencies, the need for smarter, more connected port infrastructure is critical,” said Stephan Piworus, CEO of Zenze. “Netmore is the global leader in delivering carrier-grade network services for critical business applications and this partnership represents a major step forward in transforming port operations worldwide.”
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Zenze at the forefront of this transformation, ensuring that ports around the world can maximize their capabilities and meet the growing demands of global trade,” said Ove Anebygd, CEO of Netmore Group.
“By tapping into the Zenze Cargo Visibility Network, ports will gain access to a wealth of data, analytics and be able to leverage the network for many terminal use cases, enabling smarter decision-making, increased transparency, and a more agile logistics process.”
