How Comtrade Distribution Improved Logistics Efficiency with Shipsgo

How Comtrade Distribution Improved Logistics Efficiency

Logistics Visibility That Saves Time

Managing international shipments across multiple ocean carriers can quickly become a manual and time-consuming process. Logistics teams often switch between carrier websites, update spreadsheets, follow up via email, and spend valuable time answering shipment status requests.

For companies handling a high volume of imports, these repetitive tasks can reduce operational efficiency and make it harder to react to delays.

Comtrade Distribution faced these challenges as its global logistics operations continued to grow. By implementing Shipsgo, the company centralized shipment tracking, automated notifications, and improved visibility across its supply chain.


About Comtrade Distribution

Comtrade Distribution is one of Southeast Europe's leading distributors of consumer electronics, IT equipment, and technology products. Operating across multiple international markets, the company manages a complex supply chain involving numerous suppliers, carriers, and shipments every month.

As shipment volumes increased, maintaining accurate, real-time visibility became increasingly important for both operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.


The Challenge

Before using Shipsgo, Comtrade Distribution's logistics team relied on multiple carrier websites and manual processes to monitor shipments.

This created several operational challenges:

  • Tracking shipments individually across different carrier platforms
  • Spending significant time checking shipment statuses manually
  • Delays in communicating shipment updates internally
  • Limited visibility into potential disruptions
  • Difficulty keeping customers informed with accurate delivery information

The company needed a single platform that could simplify shipment tracking while reducing manual work.


Why Shipsgo?

After evaluating different shipment visibility solutions, Comtrade Distribution selected Shipsgo because it offered everything the logistics team needed in one platform.

Shipsgo enabled the company to:

  • Track shipments from multiple ocean carriers in a single dashboard
  • Receive automatic shipment status updates
  • Eliminate repetitive manual tracking
  • Improve collaboration between logistics and customer service teams
  • Integrate shipment data into existing business processes
  • Gain real-time visibility across international shipments

Implementation was straightforward, allowing the team to begin benefiting from automated tracking almost immediately.
