The Evolution of Freight Technology: From Traditional Methods to Digital Solutions

30Aug, 2025

The logistics industry has undergone a remarkable transformation over the last several decades. What once relied heavily on paper documentation, manual scheduling, and time-consuming phone calls has evolved into a connected, data-driven network that allows businesses to move goods faster, more efficiently, and with greater visibility.

At Everglory Logistics, we have embraced this shift by adopting digital solutions that streamline operations and deliver real-time information to our clients.

 

From Manual Processes to Real-Time Visibility

In the past, freight management depended on handwritten manifests, manual customs clearance, and repeated status calls. While effective in its time, this approach often created delays, increased administrative overhead, and left customers waiting for updates.

Today, advances in freight technology—powered by cloud-based platforms and automated data exchange—allow importers and exporters to track and manage their cargo in real time. This is no longer a competitive advantage; it is an industry expectation.

 

Everglory’s Digital Advantage: Partnering with Wisetech Global

Through our partnership with Wisetech Global, we provide customers with a web-based tracking portal that integrates air freight, ocean freight, and customs clearance data into one accessible platform.

Our digital capabilities include:

  • Real-time shipment status: Clients can log in to view the latest freight and clearance updates without waiting for manual reports.

  • Customs release notifications: Automated alerts ensure that clients know immediately when cargo is cleared.

  • Daily and weekly reports: Delivered directly from our application for better planning and supply chain oversight.

  • EDI integration (messages 214 and 315): These status updates feed directly into customers’ own operational systems, eliminating the need for back-and-forth phone calls and emails.

 

The Benefits for Our Clients

  • Time savings: Automation reduces repetitive communication and speeds up decision-making.

  • Accuracy: Data is updated directly from our system, minimizing errors.

  • Control: Clients can manage their supply chain with the latest information at their fingertips.

 

Moving Forward

Freight technology will continue to advance, but the goal remains the same—faster, smarter, more transparent logistics. At Everglory Logistics, we will continue to invest in systems and partnerships that make global shipping simpler and more efficient for our customers.
