Blume Global Unveils Drayage Trucking Marketplace to Unclog Port Congestion During Holiday Season

November 4, 2021
SupplyChainBrain

Blume Global, a provider of supply chain execution and visibility technology solutions, has announced CarrierGo Live, a web-based solution that provides shippers, motor carriers and port terminal operators with the tools to alleviate unprecedented supply chain congestion. From now until January 1, shippers can use the service to book drayage capacity free of charge.

CarrierGo Live provides shippers with real-time access to drayage capacity while connecting shippers and motor carriers with hard-to-find chassis. At marine terminals, CarrierGo Live can improve port efficiency by allowing customers to expedite containers. Shippers use the solution as a unique drayage marketplace populated with carriers on the expansive Blume Global Network. These customers benefit from real-time access to drayage capacity on the spot market. 

“The port congestion issues we’ve been experiencing didn’t just materialize, and we believe there should be a holistic approach that encompasses shippers, dray carriers and marine terminals to unknot the supply chain,” according to Pervinder Johar, Blume Global’s CEO. “There are deep-seated inefficiencies in the global supply chain that digitization can help solve, but only with the concerted efforts of all parties. Blume’s CarrierGo Live works to reduce congestion and improve the flow of freight around the world.”
