- Improve business operations and efficiencies: This includes automatically receiving and processing customer shipment requests, scheduling door-to-door moves, connecting with motor carrier networks to tender work / receive milestones, and creating and sending electronic rail billing to rail partners.

“Based on the benefits provided by Blume’s technology, Valor Victoria will be able to effectively scale into multiple locations and services, helping the company reach its potential for rapid growth,” said Pervinder Johar, CEO of Blume Global. “Our solutions guarantee new levels of customer service and will enable Valor Victoria to successfully execute on new innovative supply chain strategies.”

“Valor Victoria has a distinctive understanding of carrier concerns, and our team works alongside them to create efficiency in the line-haul for stakeholders,” said Ashley Ritteman, CEO of Valor Victoria. “With continued validation from Blume’s long-standing relationship with Valor’s class one railroad partner, and witnessing the continued success of Blume solutions within the supply chain, we are convinced of the company’s commitment to amplify our impact on the industry.”
