CX North America Welcomes David Kreidler as Director of Business Development

Former Freight Broker Brings Industry Knowledge and Ability to "Speak the Language" to Technology Sales

CX North America Welcomes David Kreidler as Director of Business Development

TECUMSEH, Ontario - June 28, 2017 - CX North America Information Services Inc. (CX North America), a leader in freight visibility and collaboration solutions for the transportation industry, announced today that David Kreidler has assumed the role of director of business development. Kreidler, who will be working out of Chicago, brings to the position a well-developed understanding of issues surrounding freight transportation and logistics management developed by serving on the industry's front lines for 20 years.

Previously, as vice president of operations at Trans Dynamics, Kreidler spearheaded the company's growth from a firm with $5 million in annual revenue to one with over $20 million. After its sale to Savage Services, he served as managing director. Earlier, at Twin Modal, he built a brokerage branch office from the ground up, eventually leading it to achieve revenues of $20 million per year, too. And, at American Backhaulers, Kreidler was part of the team that elevated the importance of carrier relationships and helped launch a computer system that set the industry standard for its time.


In speaking of his new role as director of business development, David Kreidler shares, "It's exciting to move to the tech side of the freight industry at such an important time. There is definitely a David versus Goliath mentality out there, and it's hard not to root for the underdog. Many qualified, highly respected small to mid-size brokers aren't ready to back down yet and are looking for differentiators to remain competitive. There is no question that technology is the key to their ongoing survival."

Kreidler continues, "CX North America offers very robust solutions specifically designed for this space. It is the ideal technology partner for a lot of small to mid-size 3PLs. As a broker, I speak their language and can communicate the definitive ways in which our technology can help their bottom line and increase their operational efficiency. I'm looking forward to raising their awareness and helping them compete with the 'big boys' in the freight brokerage world."

Lyall Cresswell, president and CEO of CX North America, says, "With over 20 years of freight management experience, I cannot think of a more qualified individual to promote our technology and grow our business. David understands the issues and challenges freight carriers and other transportation professionals face in this age of Uber and Amazon. He can zero in on the precise ways our software and apps can help them be more efficient and profitable. His wide-ranging connections, coupled with his insights on where and how competitive advantage can be leveraged, will undoubtedly benefit 3PLs and other freight transportation providers. We look forward to great things with David directing our business development efforts."

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
