Globe Tracker International, provider of global autonomous asset tracking, monitoring, remote management, and data sharing services; and CakeBoxx Technologies, developer of secure and efficient CakeBoxx doorless intermodal shipping containers, have announced a strategic partnership.
Under the agreement, the companies will combine service and product offerings to supply the global shipping market with a pre-configured, off-the-shelf secure container/asset tracking solution.
CakeBoxx will offer a factory-installed Globe Tracker Communications Unit and a 12-month complimentary subscription to Globe Tracker services. Globe Tracker’s smart container technology provides end-to-end supply chain visibility and a way for supply chain stakeholders to seamlessly and securely share shipment data. These capabilities will now complement CakeBoxx’s line of shipping containers in a global cargo transportation market increasingly plagued with theft, damage, national security, and loading issues.
“There has always been a natural nexus between the shipping container and asset tracking services. At CakeBoxx, we continue to look at the container more as a solution than merely a cargo conveyance,” said Daine Eisold, president and chief executive officer of CakeBoxx.
“Teaming with Globe Tracker to integrate the two services at the production level makes total sense,” he said. “Our customers appreciate the safety, security, and efficiency of our CakeBoxx products; now we’ve taken the complexity of two more important decisions out of the equation: to track or not to track, and whose service to use.”
CakeBoxx designs, markets, and sells the patented CakeBoxx line of cargo shipping containers to the global intermodal transportation market. The CakeBoxx two-piece (doorless) construction is an innovation in the container industry. For more information, go to www.cakeboxx-technologies.com.
A privately held Danish company, Globe Tracker opened a development center in Beijing, China in February 2007, and now has offices and development centers in Qingdao, China; Copenhagen, Denmark; Reykjavik, Iceland; Tórshavn, Faroe Islands; and Melbourne FL.
