time they constructed a 49-acre " pop-up " site that, like
the Oakland site, is able to receive both dry agricultural
products or refrigerated containers. According to the
USDA press release announcing the partnership, the
Northwest Seaport Alliance had seen a nearly 30% decline
in the export of agricultural commodities in the last
six months of 2021. What was particularly troubling
was that the ratio of loaded versus empty container
exports had shifted to predominantly empty containers
since May 2021.
The aim of both partnerships is not only to bypass
the bottlenecks seen at main port areas, but also to
ensure U.S. producers and processors are able to deliver
perishable and non-perishable goods to end customers
in a timely fashion.
Real-time, in-transit tracking offers extra security
Despite their efforts, bottlenecks still exist, and as the
Royal Bank of Canada study points out, it's only going
to get worse. The global supply chain is complex with
many check-in points. There are many points along
the way where things can go wrong, hindering the
delivery of safe, healthy food and creating unnecessary
food waste.
Many shippers rely on data loggers, small singleuse
tracking devices, that monitor time, temperature
and humidity, explained DeltaTrak founder and CEO
Frederick Wu. In the event of delays or damage, the data
on the devices help to support claims. The downside of
data loggers is that the data can only be extracted once
it reaches its destination. Most data loggers need to be
activated at their pick-up location, too. If the shipper
forgets to activate it, a claim cannot be made. And since
they can only log data, no action can be taken en-route
to rectify issues as they develop.
Recognizing these problems, Wu and his team at
DeltaTrak set out to develop a better solution, one that
would give users more peace of mind.
