Written by Kevin Baxter | Dec 12, 2022

Food Logistics magazine today announced InTek Freight & Logistics is one of the winners of its 2022 Top Software & Technology Providers Award - honoring software and technology providers that ensure a safe, efficient and reliable global cold food and beverage supply chain. 

"At InTek, we pride ourselves on incorporating leading-edge technology with our experienced professionals to deliver top notch service to our customers - whether they ship food and beverage freight or a variety of other products," said Rick LaGore, InTek CEO. "We are excited to be recognized by Food Logistics for our use of technology to provide solutions our customers can rely on to get their products where they need to go on time and intact."

This year's Top Software & Technology Providers are noted for their investments in and implementation of emerging technologies, from mobile technology & Internet of Things (IoT) to food safety management, routing & scheduling, yard management and more. Today's software and technology offerings provide flexibility, efficiency, safety, visibility and more - and offer end-to-end management from farm to fork - and beyond.

“The supply chain management software segment is projected to reach $18.04 billion this year, according to Statista. This includes all of the emerging software solutions such as barcode systems, FinTech, inventory control, mobile technology, robotics, wireless technology and more,” says Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive. “These providers and their solutions being implanted address challenges in the cold food supply chain, whether that be port closures, driver safety or just simple automating a process.”

InTek uses a market-leading cloud-based TMS (transportation management system) platform as the technology behind its freight and logistics operations, enhancing it with best-in-class software add-ons to form a robust solution accessible to all  customers. That technology integrates features such as customer relationship management, data synchronization, freight payment, load planning, mobile technology, routing and scheduling, security solutions, supply chain management, supply
chain visibility, systems integration and more.

Food Logistics is the only publication exclusively dedicated to covering the movement of product through the global cold food supply chain. Recipients of this year's award will be profiled in the publication's November/December 2022 print issue.
