Transportify Offers Interisland Trucking Services Enabling Nationwide Reach

For Immediate Release
Aug 25, 2021

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Transportify, the country’s largest app-based logistics platform extends their reach to key cities in Visayas and Mindanao by offering interisland trucking services, which utilizes ferry boats, more commonly known as ROROs, to move trucks across bodies of water. This is a quick and direct way to move cargo across the country. For example, from Luzon, it would take an average of 2-3 days to reach final destinations in the Visayas and 4-5 days to reach final destinations in Mindanao.

Logistics is one of the biggest challenges in the Philippines to its archipelago geography. With the Philippines’ 7107 islands, businesses constantly face many challenges to ensure management of operations on a national scale is achieved efficiently. Movement of goods and people is cumbersome and costly, affecting all companies operating in the Philippines and not just logistics. Transportify aims to use technology to help address this issue.

Your Organization’s Digital Transformation Should Include Logistics

When we think of trucking, we don’t usually think of digital. When we think of trucking and using ferry boats, it’s normally even less digital.

The words digital transformation used to be a luxury. Then more organizations started to realize that it is a competitive advantage. However, this pandemic has made it a necessity for survival, especially for businesses which are burdened with scarcity of resources and the ever-increasing demands of customers.

Transportify has been widely available and popular in Luzon for many years. The company’s customers use it frequently for bulk deliveries across the island, enjoying the standard benefits of real-time tracking, 24/7 service, instant quotes, flexible payment options and in-app-communication with drivers. All of this technology and services come standard with Transportify at affordable rates. This will be no different with Transportify’s interisland service.

The company already has many customers using its services with the following most common uses:
1.) Delivery of equipment or spare parts from Luzon to 1 or more stores in VisMin
2.) Delivery of inventory from Luzon to 1 or more distribution centers in VisMin
3.) 2nd-leg bulk delivery from Cebu to other distribution centers in VisMin
