Swiss-based pharmaceutical supply chain technology company, SkyCell, has partnered with unit load device (ULD) leasing and management firm, ACL Airshop, to enhance air cargo logistics for customers.<\/p>\n

The five-year strategic partnership will integrate SkyCell\u2019s cutting-edge IoT technology across ACL Airshop\u2019s extensive ULD fleet, enhancing real-time tracking, operational efficiency, and asset utilisation.<\/p>\n

By minimising misplaced ULDs and optimising fleet allocation, ACL Airshop will be able to streamline operations, reduce excess inventory, and improve overall efficiency for its customers.<\/p>\n

Backed by more than 13 years of expertise in pharma air freight monitoring and the largest IoT network spanning more than 250 airports, SkyCell provides ACL Airshop with end-to-end fleet visibility both indoors and outdoors.<\/p>\n

This ensures greater tracking accuracy, improved asset utilisation, and higher operational reliability, enabling ACL and its customers to make data-driven decisions for seamless logistics and cost-effective ULD fleet management.<\/p>\n

Nico Ros, co-founder and chief technology officer of SkyCell<\/a>, said: \u201cReliability and efficiency are critical in air cargo logistics. By integrating our IoT technology with ACL Airshop\u2019s fleet, we\u2019re enabling real-time tracking, smarter asset utilisation, and fewer misplaced ULDs.<\/p>\n

Bernhard Kindelbacher chief executive of ACL Airshop, said: \u201cEnhancing visibility and asset utilisation is key to optimising ULD operations, and this partnership enables us to do exactly that.<\/p>\n

“By integrating SkyCell\u2019s tracking technology, ACL Airshop<\/a> will provide our customers with greater reliability in localisation, reduced losses, and improved fleet utilisation. This means fewer misplaced assets, a faster and more efficient operation, and ultimately, lower operational costs for airlines and cargo operators.<\/p>\n
