It benefits all types of manufacturers, retailers, for both imports, and exporters.
"We give Transplace Mexico customers the ability to set the price and indicate which transport carrier adapts best to their needs. Once implemented, MX FAM becomes an indispensable on-demand tool, where customers can search for the lowest price, giving them a savings up to 3 to 15 percent, while optimizing routes and guaranteeing the delivery with our dependable transport carrier group," said Transplace Mexico Director of Transportation and Distribution, Troy Ryley.
As a Web-based tool, MX FAM gives internal users and carriers instant access to information and quotes on transport, minimizing communication errors on routes, improving the efficiency and accuracy of service.
