ECU’s digital platform ECU360 launches new air freight service
The service is yet another value-added offering to ECU360’s customers based in US, leveraging technology to improve the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of air freight operations.
ECU Worldwide's digital logistics platform - ECU360, has launched a new digital air freight service to streamline the shipping process for businesses of all sizes.
The service is yet another value-added offering to ECU360’s customers based in US, leveraging technology to improve the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of air freight operations.
ECU Worldwide has already provided air freight services to 780 US customers, exporting to 310 airports across 174 countries. The company has built a platform that streamlines the entire air freight process, from Quoting to Booking, including real-time tracking and live schedules. Through this latest technology, the company aims to offer a faster, more efficient, and cost-effective way to move goods globally.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics, air freight accounts for approximately 35% of the total value of U.S. international shipments. However, traditional air freight processes can be slow, lack efficiency, and are costly, making it challenging for businesses to move their goods quickly and cost-effectively.
Jitesh Shetty, global head – ECU360, ECU Worldwide, said, "With the success of domestic trucking service, we are confident that our new digital air freight service will be a game-changer for businesses looking to streamline their shipping process and also have an alternate shipping medium as an option. With the gaping opportunity in the US market, opening air freight services to customers on ECU Worldwide's digital logistics platform - ECU360 is the right strategic move, as this will fulfil the urgent needs of businesses to transport high-value equipment, perishable goods, pharmaceuticals, and other time-sensitive cargo quickly and efficiently, contributing to the growth of various industries and the U.S. economy. We are strong on LCL network and will soon launch air imports on our platform. In addition to this, the digital platform also offers domestic trucking and insurance, which enhances our range of value added services.”
He further added, “We are committed to innovation and customer service, and our new digital air freight service is just one example of this. With over 35 years of experience in the logistics industry, ECU Worldwide has built a reputation for providing reliable and high-quality logistics solutions to businesses around the world."
ECU Worldwide has a strong track record of success in the logistics industry. In 2022, the company launched Domestic trucking service in partnership with ECU Trucking, a digital trucking service that has been a huge success.
The platform's user-friendly interface makes it easy for customers to navigate and manage their shipments, while ECU Worldwide's logistics experts are always available to assist. Real-time tracking and transparent pricing give customers complete visibility of their shipments, enabling them to make informed decisions and manage their supply chain more efficiently.
