Locus Traxx Announces Expansion into Europe



TRANSINNE, BELGIUM – Locus Traxx, the logistics tracking pioneer whose Smart Traxx Portable and Smart Traxx Go technologies have changed the way shippers do business, has announced a major expansion of its business operations into the European market.

Ray Hoffman, Managing Director of the European wing of Locus Traxx Worldwide and Vitrociset Belgium, Locus Traxx's partner in this new venture, spoke optimistically about his company's prospects in the new foreign market.

“After years of great success in the North American region, we decided to bring this level of shipment visibility to the EU,” Ray explained. “Launching EU operations allows us to approach a whole new market, with countries strategically positioned to have commercial exchanges with all the continents.”

If Locus Traxx has anywhere near the success in Europe that it has enjoyed in North America, then Hoffman's optimism will prove well founded. By giving logistics professionals the ability to monitor their cargo in real time, Locus Traxx has saved some of its clients more than $530,000 a year.

“Shippers and receivers often lack information on the conditions their products are transported, making it difficult for them to pin-point the weaknesses in the logistics chain. We offer total transparency of the transport, as well as the opportunity to react immediately to issues that arise during transport,” Ray said. “By reporting the status of the load in real time our customers are able to react immediately as problems arise and not after the fact. Many times a simple phone call can get a problem solved, thus avoiding damage to the product, time and resource consuming claims and even total loss of product.”

Locus Traxx offers its customers two different product varieties. First are its Smart Traxx Portable units housed in their iconic yellow suitcases. More recently Locus Traxx has debuted its Smart Traxx Go units, which like its Portable counterparts are capable of transmitting location and temperature information in real time, but add several new features.

Locus Traxx is confident that they can successfully bring this model for success overseas. And with its track record who would doubt them?
