Holland, Mich.—April 25, 2013—LeanLogistics, a global solutions provider of transportation management system (TMS) applications and supply chain services, welcomed global seafood company Marine Harvest to the growing network of European LeanTMS technology clients.
Marine Harvest, which provides farmed salmon and processed seafood to customers in more than 50 markets worldwide, now leverages the multi-modal and multi-language capabilities of LeanLogistics LeanTMS to build a more integrated supply chain. LeanTMS will provide Marine Harvest with complete supply chain visibility to meet their customers' high demands for on-time delivery of fresh products.
“Marine Harvest selected LeanLogistics technology solution due to the flexibility of LeanTMS,” said Rune Hegrestad, Group Director ITC, Marine Harvest Group. “LeanLogistics has experience with complex food manufacturing companies similar to us and we look forward to realizing the benefits provided by a true SaaS TMS platform.”
