This improved environmental sustainability was made possible, in part, through Amsted Digital Solutions providing greater supply chain digitization and enhanced asset visibility.

We are pleased to be the chosen telematics partner in this exciting new freight rail expansion project. With our digital platform and IoT devices, Perrier now has unrivaled visibility and control throughout the shipment process.

Key Benefits
