The platform has been in use in Southern California since 2014 completing thousands of shipments in the region, according to Cargomatic.
“We are thrilled to bring Cargomatic to New York,” said Jonathan Kessler, Cargomatic CEO. “We have experienced 10-times growth over the past year, which makes us confident that the transparency and efficiency that Cargomatic provides will be embraced in the nation’s largest metropolitan region, and at its second busiest port.”
