It was a no-brainer for me to join the talented Shippians as I understood that this was where I could indulge in my passion for supply chain, big data, machine learning and AI in one place and at the same time make a significant positive difference to our customers."
With over 100 customers, including global brands like Coca-Cola HBC, Faurecia, and Total, Shippeo offers a best-in-market ETA prediction in terms of accuracy and reliability as well as a more granular degree of multimodal tracking, right down to handling unit and goods levels, which supports all modes of transport including ocean, road, LTL and FTL. Shippeo's ambition is to be the leading supply chain operating system, enabling fully automated and sustainable supply chains across the world.
Lucien Besse, Shippeo’s Chief Operating Officer , welcomes Anand to the team. “We are thrilled to welcome Anand to the Shippeo executive leadership team. He brings great skills at the intersection of product strategy, AI, machine learning, and supply chain management to the company”, said Besse. “As the Chief Product Officer, he will set the product strategy to disrupt the supply chain visibility marketplace with innovative solutions, playing a key role in the company’s development and continued success. His intimate knowledge and experience within the market are invaluable, and he will no doubt be a great asset within our leadership team.”
