The challenge
Prices for maritime cargo transport have been on the rise for some time now. The effects of the pandemic, increased energy costs and supply bottlenecks mean that the cost of transporting goods by sea has gone through the roof. That is why Schwarz Group decided to ditch the dependencies by buying container ships to reduce costs and steer away from transport difficulties in global trade. The previous merchandise management systems within the Group were unable to meet the specific demands of the shipping industry. Therefore, a new system had to be selected, constructed and set up in short order.
