CHARLOTTE, NC - No stranger to innovation in the logistics field, ALC Logistics looks to have a few more tricks up its sleeve. As an answer to the recent Food Safety Modernization Act, the company has introduced a new dock scheduling program, promising to streamline docking and loading for all types of produce businesses. I spoke with VP of Operations Kenny Lund, who was more than happy to share the inside scoop with AndNowUKnow.

“Right now, we have the Food Safety Modernization Act that just went into effect in transportation and we also have electronic logging devices that are mandatory in December of this year,” Kenny tells me about the recent changes. “It’s going to put pressure on the supply chain to be more efficient.”

Enter ALC Logistics’ new dock scheduling program, with over 1 million scheduling appointments available for just one of the company’s customers. The aim here is to streamline the time it takes to dock and load, eliminating the need to wait and potentially incur detention charges.

“It’s going to save our customers a lot of money,” Kenny explains.
