FedEx Logistics and Electrolux are participating in the commercial rollout of a service that enables merchants to electronically sign off on air cargo bookings before their freight forwarder completes the transaction with an airline through a digital marketplace. The parties say that makes procurement decisions more predictable and efficient.
The new capability, enabled by freight booking and payment platform Freightos (NASDAQ: CRGO), gives shippers direct visibility into the booking process handled by an agent so flight details, and necessary adjustments, are automatically communicated without manual intervention.
