The traditional family-owned company Tyrholm & Farstad on Sunnmøre has for over 100 years delivered transport and logistics services to customers worldwide. The company is now taking a big step into the future by moving its logistics systems to the cloud in cooperation with Maritech.
With 111 years of experience, Tyrholm & Farstad offers a broad range of services including road, sea, and air freight, as well as its own terminal, warehouse and customs control. The company has always had the ability to renew itself, and in recent years digitalization has been high on the agenda.
Identifying the need for change
“We saw a big need to upgrade to a more modern transport system, and we want to modernize digitally and have as much as possible in the cloud,” says Tor Knutsen, CEO of Tyrholm & Farstad.
“Maritech Cloud checks off many of the boxes we had when choosing a new system. For us, it is important that our new system contributes to optimizing operations, increasing efficiency, and strengthening control. We see ever greater demands from both our customers and suppliers with respect to, among other things, electronic interaction, traceability and documentation, and the data handling in the system simplifies this greatly for us. Something which in turn contributes to fewer errors, better control and improved management and reporting.”
