Our take
Warehouses and production lines increasingly employ technology to boost efficiency, but businesses often give little thought to supply-chain logistics beyond their facilities. Peripass provides yard management software for logistics and production sites, allowing them a better view of the arrival and departure times of trucks, to reduce loading and unloading wait-times across the industry.
Founded in 2016, Peripass aims to combat the inefficiency that surrounds trucks entering and leaving sites. This means the right goods are sent to the right gates, and are received by the right people, and also allows the business to avoid unnecessary waiting costs – which Peripass claims can be reduced by 85% overall with its technology.
Peripass is active at more than 120 logistics and production sites across Europe, boasting an impressive client list. Investment in the company has gone towards improving product utility, with further funds expected to enable the company to scale with the growing supply chain management industry.
