Santa Clara, CA, US: Intelleflex, which this month launched its temperature-monitoring solutions in Europe, has won a Food Logistics Top 100 award from Food Logistics Magazine.
The award judges focused on solution providers that are helping their customers differentiate themselves in the marketplace, while simultaneously facilitating improved safety and traceability throughout the supply chain.
Intelleflex formed a strategic alliance with The Hartford Financial Group, an industry leader in loss prevention, insurance and other services, to enable Hartford’s customers to more effectively monitor perishables and other temperature-sensitive products throughout the supply chain.
Together, the two companies are able to help shippers, carriers, warehouse operators, and logistics providers avoid waste, lower claims, and maximize profits in the cold supply chain.
“With the passage of the FDA’s landmark Food Safety and Modernization Act, the entire food and beverage sector is under increased pressure to improve safety and traceability throughout the supply chain. In addition, the ongoing globalization of food supply chains demands closer collaboration with suppliers and enhanced visibility from farm to fork,” says Lara Sowinski, editor-in-chief at Food Logistics.

We look forward to building on the momentum in 2012.”
