Enabling a digital future for the ports industry
Access the benefits of digitisation across the ports industry
From ocean freighters and shipping terminals, through to the storage, logistics and transport operations that enable the onward movement of goods, digital transformation is underway across the ports industry.
But to unlock the many advantages of digitisation – greater efficiency, productivity, speed, control and visibility – businesses at every stage of the supply chain need to digitalise their processes and to equip their teams with the right technology.
An essential element of the new digital toolkit are reliable mobile solutions (from devices to software and vehicle mounted solutions) – and for that, there’s one name that leads the world: TOUGHBOOK from Panasonic.
