Grupo Hemas Taps Savi Networks to Monitor the Security and Status of Cargo Shipments in Real Time


MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. and MANZANILLO, Oct. 28 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --


    Grupo Hemas, a rapidly expanding Mexico-based logistics and security firm, has contracted with Savi Networks for its

real-time intelligence service that automatically monitors the location, security and condition of

shipments transported throughout the supply chain.

SaviTrak(TM) intelligence service, which enables better cargo tracking, operational efficiency,

inventory management and the immediate detection of possible security breaches. SaviTrak also enables Grupo Hemas to

immediately detect and take action on changes in the condition of temperature-sensitive cargo, hazardous materials and

agricultural products.

environmental visibility of cargo anywhere and anytime," said Hector Mora, chief executive officer of Grupo Hemas.

customer for Savi Networks because it is a major trade region worldwide," said Neil Smith, chief executive officer of Savi

Networks. "We already have commercial and government customers throughout Asia, Europe, North and South America,

and now our relationship with Grupo Hemas expands the SaviTrak intelligence service into Mexico."
