Sojo Industries, a leading automation and robotics mobile manufacturer of variety and multi-pack assembly for food and beverage brands, is thrilled to announce that they are the new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title holder for the largest GPS drawing by cars (team).

Embarking on a journey across the United States, Sojo’s team of drivers crossed a total of 8,908 miles and 3,146 feet (officially 14,337 kilometers) spelling out “SOJO” while utilizing Sojo Shield™, a blockchain enabled, geo-location integrated first-of-its-kind track and trace platform. The journey started at Sojo’s facility in Redlands, California on April 16. From there, the team traveled across the country, making stops in major metropolitan areas like Denver, Atlanta, Nashville and Washington D.C. to create digital “pings” at each location with Sojo Shield™’s geo-location capabilities. The road trip earned a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title while showcasing the power of track-and-trace technology.


"This journey was a whirlwind, seeing so many parts of the country in such a short time,” said Barak Bar-Cohen, founder and CEO of Sojo Industries. “By using Sojo Shield throughout this adventure, we’ve seen firsthand the benefits of geo-location technology for our customers and partners, especially as they prepare for new compliance mandates. So proud of the entire Sojo family and the incredible journey we embarked on. Sojo Industries is now a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title holder!”

The journey ended at Sojo’s headquarters in Bristol, Pennsylvania on May 12th. This record-setting adventure underscores the value of track and trace capabilities to improve logistics and ensure compliance.
