Turkon Line to integrate with GT Nexus

Independent Turkish-flagged shipping line, Turkon Line, will integrate its back-office systems with the GT Nexus Portal, aligning the carrier with several major customers already using GT Nexus for global transportation e-commerce.Established in 1997, Turkon Line operates three services: East-Med, North Europe Med and the American Service. Turkon Line is one of the fastest growing container transportation companies in the world.“For carriers, technology has become a strategic differentiator in the eyes of the big shippers,” said GT Nexus president John Urban. “GT Nexus gives Turkon instant technical credibility with a community of customers that collectively spend billions of dollars in ocean freight each year.”Using GT Nexus as a logistics management platform gives carriers the opportunity to raise the level of partnership by supporting the system for processes including: managing contracts, shipment execution, shipment visibility, and freight payment.
