TradingProduce.com Announces Handheld Wireless PDA Capability for Logistics Use

TradingProduce.com, a B2B e-commerce portal for the perishable food industry, has announced its wireless solution for improving field inspection (bird-dogging) and logistics. The company has partnered with Symeo™ Incorporated to provide the software technology, Mobilbridge™. With Symeo’s technology and TradingProduce.com‘s portal , field inspectors and transportation personnel can now download reports, digital images, bar code information, and bills of lading.

How it works:

  • With Mobilbridge, field inspectors, using a PDA or handheld device, can capture bar codes, digital images, video clips offline from bar code scanners and digital cameras, and then transfer them to the TradingProduce.com portal.
  • A buyer then clicks the product of interest and immediately receives a detailed report with images.
  • Before shipping and at delivery, the product can be confirmed, including the amount shipped and received, along with pictures of the goods.

Mobilbridge:

  • A client-side-only application that eliminates the need for serve-side integration with corporate databases.
  • Users can download pages directly onto the wireless device, and then upload them to the corporate site when a wireless connection is available.
  • Enterprises can create field-application specific programs for mobile use.

TradeProduce.com’s members are not charged a fee. This service-and-solution-oriented Web site generates revenue from proprietary value-added services, including logistics, financial services, analysis tools, and engineering.

Mobileinfo Comments and Advisory: A good vertical application for the produce industry!
