Due to the pandemic the ever rising e-commerce business has seen a massive growth. It is one of the most rapidly growing markets in the world economy. The transportation trends in 2021 shows this as well, the biggest trend is the necessity to deliver more products in less time. Most of these products are shipped in containers, which brings challenges for companies.
Unloading a container is a process that requires maximum expertise to make the entire process a success. Usually, ships are packed to full capacity to ensure that there is maximum utilization of the available space. Unpacking such containers not only poses a risk to the workforce involved but also damages to the contents. Once the container arrives and is received, container handlers carefully unload it using cranes, forklifts, or through manual handling. These tasks requires manual labor and can become quite expensive. Also finding the right people to do the manual unloading is getting harder. Qimarox found a better solution.
