eCargo Pouch

eCargo Pouch is a central document and message management system for the support of paperless shipment in the air cargo industry. It enables paperfree and quick exchange of freight information across the entire supply chain and in addition, includes an archiving feature.

As a web-based application in the form of a globally accessible database, it allows access to all participants in the supply chain. Authorized partners get a transparent overview of all documents made available by the origin forwarder. This goes for electronic messages as well as for supporting documents for example invoice, packing list and more. eCargo Pouch fully supports and complies with the recommendations of IATA's e-Freight program. Thanks to continuous product development, the system caters to the ever-changing requirements of industry stakeholders.

Environmental arguments also speak for the implementation of eCargo Pouch. Users not only save time and money, paperfree cargo communication on a global basis renders impressive ecological benefits.
