‘The TMS SaaS software category continues to grow at double digits even through the pandemic. If anything, supply chain managers and the systems they acquire to manage the flow of material and finished goods got a boost of visibility during the pandemic. People understand in painful ways the impact of supply chain disruptions. Alpega is perfectly positioned to take advantage of this new wave of investments to digitally transform supply chains. Anton is the perfect guy to help us show the supply chain world how we can help them’ continued DeLaughter.

We not only help companies save hundreds of millions of euros in transport costs, Alpega makes sustainability actionable. Advanced planning and smart routing functionality enables companies to reduce their carbon footprint by ensuring full trucks on return as well as outbound trips and by reducing the wait times of idling trucks to load/unload at warehouse docks’ said Anton Hofmeier, new TMS CRO for Alpega Group.
