Locus Traxx Worldwide and Owyhee Produce have announced a partnership that will give Owyhee’s customers the ability to track and monitor live load temperature and location.
“We are happy to partner with Owyhee Produce and help ensure that their product reaches its destination in the very best conditions,' said David Benjamin, president and CEO of Locus Traxx Worldwide. 'Locus Traxx Worldwide is the leader in managing food safety by combining technologies that deliver necessary information faster and efficiently.
“It is imperative that we protect the hard work of the growers, and guarantee that the food will not fall prey to temperature abuse,' he added. 'This will ensure a fresh product with high nutritional value.”
Shay Myers, CEO at Owyhee Produce, said that his group had been waiting for a product like the SmartTraxx GO for several years.
'It doesn’t matter how much time and effort we put into growing, packing, and marketing a product if we can’t assure that it arrives on time and in the same condition in which it left our facility,' he explained. 'We will never have to worry about losing communication with a load in transit because we are guaranteed transparency and visibility at our fingertips.
“The use of the SmartTraxx GO on all of our loads is just another way to demonstrate our clients why 'there’s a difference' when you buy from Owyhee Produce. We hope that this exclusive agreement between Owyhee Produce and Locus Traxx Worldwide will help demonstrate the value we see in this great product, and serve as example for others who might consider using it.”
