MercuryGate looks to Asian markets

 

   MercuryGate International, a transportation management solutions (TMS) service provider, has announced a partnership with JFE Pfe Ltd., a supply chain services provider, to create MercuryGate Asia Pacific.
   MercuryGate has operated in the Pacific Rim region for some time, but said the move was to add a global face forits  TMS in the region, as well as to better support existing customers there.
   Based in Singapore, MercuryGate Asia Pacific (MGAP) will provide products and sales for MercuryGate International’s products to shippers, 3PLs and freight forwarders in the Pacific Rim.
   Along with the launch of MGAP, the company announced an agreement with Zuellig Pharma, a pharmaceutical and healthcare distributor in Singapore, to use MercuryGate TMS. Zuellig will use the platform in the software-as-a-service model.
   The company said it expects to see strong demand and growth in the Pacific Rim over the next 24 months due mostly to manufacturing.
   MGAP will focus its TMS operations on Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Japan, Malaysia, and South Korea. MercuryGate said its TMS offering can be localized for interfaces, border information, and currency.
