Thanks to a Global Positioning System (GPS), all of Grupo Esfuerzo’s trucks are monitored in real-time since May 19.
“This guarantees greater security for our customer’s cargo, allowing us to be informed of any stop or detour in the fruit’s transport route” , assured Roberto Gómez, company general manager.
Implementing GPS in the vehicle fleet, also makes it possible to generate the most efficient routes, saving time and resources; this is essential to meet delivery deadlines.
This project had an initial investment of $1,000 and also responds to a corporate strategy to mitigate the risks related to the safety, security and well-being of the workers, in this case, our truck drivers.
“This project allows us to, not only improve our management system in controls and security but also provide greater peace of mind to our clients and collaborators” , said Gómez.
