01 CRITICAL CHALLENGES
The critical challenges facing
The critical challenges facing
the sector faces
Product quality, food safety and distribution costs stand out as three critical, interdependent concerns.
Cold Chain and Delivery Tracking
Monitoring the processes that get food products delivered on time and in the right conditions is critical to protecting product quality.
Fleet Visibility
A lack of real-time position and status information in distribution operations makes processes harder to manage and reduces efficiency.
Safety Risks
Blind spots around the vehicle and inadequate camera recording increase the risk of workplace accidents and damage.
02 TELEMETRY
Telemetry: keep your finger on the fleet's pulse
Our telemetry solution, developed specifically for the food sector, is designed to meet the needs of large-scale operations.
Every vehicle's live position, speed, route and operational data is streamed continuously to the central system.
Live Data Stream
All operational data is monitored in real time through the vehicle sensors.
Automatic Analysis
Data on speed, route and driver behavior is analyzed in real time.
Proactive Alerts
If a deviation or anomaly is detected, the system notifies the relevant teams immediately.
WHAT IS TRACKED IN FOOD DISTRIBUTION
- Position and route: The vehicle's live position, its drift from the planned route and every stop duration are tracked.
- Speed and driving hours: Speed violations, continuous driving time and break patterns are followed for regulatory compliance.
- Compartment temperatures: Chilled, frozen and ambient compartments are measured separately, each against its own threshold.
- Door status: The moment and duration of each door opening is matched to the temperature data on the same time axis.
- Fuel level: Sudden drops and unusual consumption are assessed together with the fuel security system.
- Driver behaviour: Harsh braking, sharp acceleration and idling time are reported per trip.
03 LOGISTICS OPTIMIZATION
Cost, time and the cold chain through route optimization
Our Logistics Management System, built to handle the complexity of food distribution operations, brings cold chain management, route optimization, delivery tracking and temperature monitoring together on one platform.
In food distribution, route optimization manages three things at once: on the cost side, distance, fuel and the energy the refrigeration unit consumes; on the time side, goods-in windows and the product's remaining shelf life; on the equipment side, how much of the chilled, frozen and ambient compartments is actually used. A shorter route cuts not just fuel but the time spent refrigerating.
The solution digitizes distribution processes end to end, so every delivery record becomes traceable for product quality and food safety.
Route Optimization
The most efficient route is planned according to delivery priorities and field conditions, shortening delivery times.
Delivery Tracking
Every delivery step is logged digitally and monitored live from the center.
Temperature Monitoring
Temperature data from the sensors is tracked continuously, and any deviation raises an automatic warning.
Shelf-Life Priority
Products with the least shelf life left are moved to the front of the sequence, so nothing loses value waiting in the vehicle.
Compartment and Capacity Fit
Vehicle capacity is assessed together with the chilled, frozen and ambient compartments, so products needing different temperatures travel in separate compartments on the same trip.
Distance, fuel and refrigeration energy
In food distribution, cost is not just distance: the running time of the refrigeration unit and the number of door openings also turn into energy.
- Total trip distance and fuel consumption fall
- The refrigeration unit runs for less time
- Door openings and their duration are measured per trip
Goods-in hours and shelf life
The goods-in hours of supermarkets, restaurants and catering sites are defined as constraints, and products with the least shelf life left are delivered first.
- Sequences that miss goods-in hours are eliminated at planning
- Short-shelf-life products go to the front of the sequence
- The time each product spends in the vehicle stays on record
Refrigerated vehicle and compartment use
Compartment capacity for chilled, frozen and ambient goods is planned together, reducing both empty refrigerated volume and the number of half-loaded trips.
- Load factor is measured per compartment, per trip
- Fewer trips leave half loaded
- Refrigerated vehicle numbers are planned to real demand
THE CONSTRAINTS THE OPTIMIZER TAKES INTO ACCOUNT
- Goods-in window: Each site's goods-in hours are defined as a constraint, so any sequence that falls outside the window is eliminated at the planning stage.
- Shelf life and product priority: Products with the least shelf life left are moved to the front of the sequence, so nothing loses value while it waits.
- Temperature compartment fit: When chilled, frozen and ambient goods travel on the same trip, each compartment's capacity is calculated separately.
- Door-opening discipline: The sequence groups deliveries in the same area together, so the door opens less often and the internal temperature fluctuates less.
- Traffic and road conditions: Live traffic data affects route duration, so at peak times the same distance is planned in a different order.
- Driver hours: Trip duration, breaks and maximum driving time are all taken into account, keeping the plan compliant.
04 COLD CHAIN
The cold chain across three critical stages
The cold chain across three critical stages
monitored without a break
Temperature is measured, verified and logged at every stage from the warehouse to the store cabinet, so the cold chain is never broken at any point.
Cold Store
Multiple sensors measure temperatures in different zones of the warehouse, and the average of those readings verifies the temperature at dispatch. This puts on record that the product was at the right temperature before loading, so the first link of the chain closes before the trip even starts.
In-Vehicle Transport
Sensors placed at different points track the average temperature throughout transport, and the system raises an immediate warning on any deviation. Chilled, frozen and ambient compartments are measured separately, and door openings are written into the same record.
Delivery Point
The temperature of the store cabinet is measured to record that products were delivered in the right conditions, safeguarding product quality and food safety. The delivery record is kept together with the temperature history of that trip.
WHAT IS RECORDED ON EVERY TRIP
- Temperature history: Continuous per-compartment measurement from dispatch to delivery — the whole curve is kept, not just an average.
- Door-opening record: When, where and for how long the door stayed open is written into the trip record.
- Location and time: Every reading is matched to a position and a timestamp, so it is clear where each value was taken.
- Deviations and alerts: Threshold excursions, who the alert went to and when it was closed all stay on record.
- Delivery confirmation: The store cabinet reading and the delivery step come together in the same record.
- Audit-ready output: Trip-based records are exported as reports, ready for a customer or an audit request.
05 CLOUD CAMERA
Cloud camera system: reach it from anywhere
The Cloud Camera System streams footage from every vehicle in your food distribution fleet to the central management platform over cloud infrastructure in real time. Live and recorded footage can be reached from anywhere with an internet connection, so the flow of information between the field and the center never breaks.
By making footage from the moment of an incident available for review, the system lets disputes and damage claims be handled faster and more effectively. Managers can take quick, evidence-based decisions on operational problems using the visual record.
Remote Access
Every vehicle camera can be reached in real time from any device with an internet connection.
Automatic Backup
Footage is backed up to the cloud automatically, removing the risk of data loss.
Real-Time Event Alerts
When a critical event is detected, managers receive an immediate notification with footage.
Footage Archive and Reporting
Recorded footage is easy to filter, and event-based reports are produced quickly and efficiently.
