GCCA most recently welcomed two new supplier members – Boltrics in the Netherlands joining as a warehousing associate member and GridBeyond, a UK-based company joining as warehousing associate member and controlled-environment building supplier. Also, rejoining GCCA is Savoye, as a warehousing associate member.
Boltrics is a young, innovation-driven organization that delivers software for logistics service providers; from cold stores to companies involved in road, air and sea freight. With years of experience within the logistics and IT sectors, they have developed the knowledge and expertise to optimally support the needs of the logistics sector. Knowing that logistics service providers independently try to reinvent the wheel, it inspired Boltrics to develop a branch standard. One state-of-the-art solution that the entire branch can use as a proven standard thanks to the development power of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Jan-Cornell van Ekris, Commercial Director at Boltrics, explains : “For over ten years, we have enabled cold stores – such as Lineage Logistics, AGRO Merchants and Kloosterboer – to streamline their logistics processes and improve their efficiency. We already had the pleasure to work closely with the Dutch Association for Cold Storage, Nekovri, an affiliated member of GCCA, and develop our branch solution with the input of their members. We are very pleased to become part of GCCA’s worldwide network and look forward to connecting with industry leaders around the globe.”
GridBeyond is a global player in intelligent energy technology for commercial and industrial (C&I) businesses and Distributed Energy Resources Management (DERM) platform provider. The company supports large energy consumers in improving their bottom line through new revenue streams and savings, whilst enhancing their sustainability credentials. By connecting energy intensive assets, energy storage, on-site generation and EV charging to GridBeyond’s AI energy platform, Point, C&I businesses can participate in energy market opportunities without any capital expenditure or impact on their operational integrity. Wayne Muncaster, Vice-President for North America operations, who will be contributing to GCCA’s Refrigeration & Energy Committee, commented: “We are pleased to join the Global Cold Chain Alliance, and we are looking forward to supporting members with our expertise and energy market insights.” Read more about GridBeyond here.
