A Jacksonville logistics company is working with a buzzy transportation technology company to help expand the technology firm's product to include ocean shipments.
Jacksonville-based Trailer Bridge began rolling out the company's Mastermind software in 2021, a move CEO Mitch Luciano said was"a big step forward for us at Trailer Bridge and our next phase of who we become." The software, though, has not handled ocean shipments — something that will change through Trailer Bridge's adoption of the platform. The companies are targeting a late 2023 launch for that functionality.
Trailer Bridge began using the platform in June, primarily as a method of managing the truckload business, but will now be rolling the software out to other areas of the company throughout the next two years. It will add its intermodal and less-than-truckload operations at the end of the year, then plans to add truck operations and ocean business.
