With eTrucknow, shippers get access to a simplified quotation and booking process for domestic road logistics shipments. "The easy-to-use digital solution has been developed based on our customers' needs and market trends. The platform's functionalities are continuously evolving to create an optimal customer experience from an ad-hoc shipment to the regular large volume of shipments," Kuehne+Nagel Asia Pacific Senior Vice President of Road Logistics Chellan Ganesan said.
