by | Jan 17, 2022 | Press Release

Miami, FL – January 17, 2022 – Magaya Corporation, the leading provider of end-to-end logistics and supply chain automation software, today announced that International Food Group, a division of Sysco Corporation, has selected the Magaya Digital Freight Platform to streamline the operations of its export division.

International Food Group (IFG) provides a complete end-to-end solution for its customers’ supply chain needs. IFG is 100% dedicated to export, supplying over 80 countries around the world.  The company operates two dedicated facilities in Florida, including a 125,000 square foot facility in Plant City and a 200,000 square foot facility in Jacksonville. Providing export operations and consolidations, logistics and documentation, freight management, and freight forwarding services, the company manages more than 10,000 containers per year.

“As a leader in the field, IFG’s customers expect the highest quality service, so it was critical that we select the right technology partner,” commented IFG VP of Global Logistics, Tim Crumley.  “After demos and conversations with numerous supply chain management solutions, we were convinced that Magaya far surpassed its competitors. We were impressed not only by Magaya’s expertise in technology but also the superior level of customer support that started with onboarding. This was a clear differentiator for us.”

From quote to final destination, Magaya Supply Chain will optimize every step of the process for IFG. With integrated functionality for operations, accounting, tracking, and warehouse management, IFG will benefit from a seamless exchange of data in real-time. Providing greater visibility and the ability to work collaboratively, Magaya Supply Chain will eliminate work silos and wasteful repetition, thereby increasing IFG’s productivity.  

With just one click within Magaya Supply Chain, IFG will be able to monitor the location and status of its containers worldwide. Container Tracking by Magaya provides real-time, direct visibility and automated updates so IFG will know when a shipment is delayed or diverted from its destination. 

LiveTrack by Magaya will give IFG customers direct access to cargo releases, warehouse receipts, shipment statuses, inventory quantities, and invoices 24 hours a day. With real-time visibility, customers will require less assistance from the IFG team, enabling them to work on other projects and improve productivity.

Additionally, the freight rate management system will allow IFG to access, compare and manage spot rates, file tariffs, and create multimodal quotes, all from a single control tower.  Built to the specific needs of freight forwarders, the solution links air, ocean, rail, and road buy-and-sell rates with an easy-to-use drag and drop technology, allowing IFG to quickly generate winning quotes.

For IFG’s in-house customs brokerage, Magaya will provide an ACE-certified customs compliance solution to streamline and accelerate its In-bond and FTZ  filing process. Plus, real-time alerts will keep IFG informed with instant updates on shipment statuses and provide visibility into transactions, duties, and fees. 

“Launching a new division is challenging, especially in today’s unpredictable environment. We’re thrilled that IFG recognized Magaya’s unique ability to address these needs and tackle the challenges of an extremely volatile marketplace,” commented Magaya Chief Revenue Officer Mark Buman. “We’re confident that the Magaya Digital Freight Platform will help IFG accelerate growth and profitability by providing automated and sophisticated processes across its entire origin-to-destination operation.”
