Customers active in FMCG, Retail and Industrial segments experience pain points within their supply chains such as damaged and perished products, lost products and substantial chain inefficiencies. By creating complete visibility in the supply chain with smart assets like pallets, crates and promotional display units, capturing movements, temperature and shocks Ahrma addresses these pain points. The data which is captured from these smart assets is supported by a Control Room and made available as intelligence to its customers. This enables full transparency in the supply chain in order to lower the total logistic cost and creates sustainability benefits.
