Archerhub Named a Top Providers in Food Logistics

Archerhub's asset-based digital marketplace provides enhanced visibility and protects against truck breakdowns

Archerhub Named a Top Providers in Food Logistics

Archerhub is an asset-based digital freight broker, in that not only does it match loads with its network of carriers, it also runs its own fleet. The Archerhub fleet serves as a backup for loads that go uncovered on its platform by carrier partners as well as the lynchpin of its freight recovery program for any potential truck breakdowns while in transit. With the support of its fleet, Archerhub guarantees hauls for every shipper that registers a load.

"Our platform constantly sources for truck capacity from outside carriers regardless of whether the truck is fine and in transit. We're still looking for trucks until that load gets delivered," said Nick Darmanchev, founder and CEO, Archerhub. "If the truck breaks down midway, we already have a database of available empty trucks that might take the load. If that does not pass, we look into our own fleet."

This guarantee is of particular importance to its perishable food shipper customers, for whom shelf life and freshness is of the utmost importance.


"Our brand promise to customers depends on speed and freshness, so we wanted the efficiency and visibility that a digital freight broker provides, but also wanted to guarantee that our shipments would arrive on time. Archerhub provides the best of both worlds," said Claude Taylor, Shipping Manager for DemKota Ranch Beef. "The visibility technology is a huge advantage for a company like ours with perishable shipments. Before Archerhub, we didn't know where our loads were until they arrived...or if it was late."

Archerhub's digital marketplace for truckload freight connects shippers and drivers through Archerhub's mobile app or online platform, providing instant quotes, full transparency, real time visibility, and automated customized reports.

Freight shipments are contracted with the most reliable carriers in the industry that adhere to rigorous standards, as well as via options from Archerhub's private trucking fleet. Archerhub provides full transparency regarding any load during the cycle of a load and after its completion via its mobile app or online platform, with optional automated notifications for the loads if desired.

The annual FL100+ Top Software and Technology Providers list serves as a resource guide of software and technology providers whose products and services are critical for companies in the global food and beverage supply chain. Companies on this year's 2019 FL100+ Top Software and Technology Providers are found in the November/December 2019 issue of Food Logistics.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
