One of the biggest challenges our customers faced was the availability of containers and space on vessels.
We understood their requirements and priorities through constant dialogue with our customers and could forecast the demand and supply equation more accurately in the current volatile market condition.
This has helped us plan the movement of our containers effectively, thus making empty equipment available for the exporters to ship their cargo out to the global market.
Through solutions such as Spot and Twill, we create a customer experience wherein the exporters can request quotes, book their shipment, get instant confirmations and track their cargo through easy-to-use mobile applications and platforms.
Twill has truly been a game-changer for SMEs who don’t have the expertise in managing complex supply chains.
We have teams hand-holding our customers throughout the process to simplify it so that our customers can focus on their core business.
Maersk Pakistan has been working hard on ensuring that the Pakistani exporters get better access to containers, vessel space, and digital platforms and creating solutions through the various stages of their cargo’s journey.
