Companhia Nitro Quimica Brasileira recently said it has chosen Eyefreight’s transportation management system (TMS) to support its domestic and international logistics, positioning the Brazilian firm to continue growth while cutting costs. 

"Eyefreight is very proud to have Nitro Quimica as a customer in Brazil," Eyefreight CEO Ken Fleming said. “(The) potential of the Brazilian market for Eyefreight is especially significant because our TMS platform is well suited to complex markets, delivering value, optimizing processes and ensuring logistics visibility in all its phases.” 

With an 80-year history, Nitro Quimica is among the world’s largest producers of nitrocellulose, a cotton-like polymer synthesized for use in manufacturing plastics, varnishes, solid propellants, celluloid and explosive materials. The company exports to over 70 nations.

"For these reasons, Nitro Quimica invested in the search for a solid TMS partner which has international experience and advanced logistics management that enables us to grow nationally and internationally," Fernando Siqueira, Nitro Quimica’s supply chain director, said. "The selection of Eyefreight was very thorough and based on the benefits that the tool will deliver to the company and all the know-how of our new partner. We are confident that we will achieve the benefits sought."
