Marine Terminals Corp. to implement SaviTrak information network
Oakland-based terminal operator Marine Terminals Corp. has reached an agreement with Savi Networks LLC to implement the SaviTrak network of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for containers coming to the United States to its port facilities.
MTC operates 26 terminals in 13 ports across the U.S. West Coast and at additional ports in the U.S. South Atlantic region.
Savi Networks is a joint venture between information technology firm Savi Technology Inc. and Hong Kong-based international port group Hutchison Port Holdings.
“Our agreement with MTC enables Savi Networks to expand its global footprint throughout some of the largest U.S. load centers for import container traffic,” said Lani Fritts, Savi Networks’ chief operating officer.
Savi Networks said implementations of SaviTrak have initially focused on the highest volume ports, including Los Angeles, Long Beach, Seattle, Tacoma and Oakland.
