Harnessing digital information for faster finishes

As a company that prides itself in being at the forefront of innovation, Puma’s speed-to-market was being hindered by slow container release updates. Implementing TradeLens helped them leverage the power of data to receive port notifications in real time and get their processes back up to speed.

Giving new wings to global business opportunities

Despite port closures in Colombia due to workers’ strikes, Accur8 Distribution was able to circumvent the potential delays by pivoting to the Maersk Air Freight solution. This helped ensure they met the market demand, while also saving time and money.
