Shipping line Safmarine has introduced a mobile website offering for its customers. This innovative new service (launched in November 2010) can be accessed by all major mobile devices* and smart phones.

Tomas Dyrbye, Safmarine CEO says: 'Since e-Business has become the norm in shipping we have gone one step further and extended this by offering mobile solutions. The new mobile functionality offers Safmarine customers on-the-go instant access to functionalities such as being able to search and track cargo by simply using a booking, bill of lading or container number. Since the launch of the new mobile service, we have seen increased usage on a daily basis.'

Another solution offering allows mobile users to retrieve the shipping schedules (by location) functionality. '

This is in addition to the schedules and tracking applications already available on www.safmarine.com. Safmarine agency/office details are also accessible using the mobile site.
