In addition, 97% of Shippeo’s customers on Gartner Peer Insights would recommend the Shippeo Visibility Platform.*

Brian has held senior leadership roles within ABB, International Assets Systems (acquired by Blume Global) and Navis (acquired by Accel-KKR), in addition to years of international supply chain consulting.

“There is no better time than now to accelerate Shippeo’s position within the North American market.
