Smart Containers Group has set out to develop a logistics platform, that provides a solution for secure shipping of sensitive goods that require a high level of transportation. The company is considering blockchain technology for creating a fully autonomous shipping system with the help of smart contracts and integrated invoicing patterns. The project is of particular interest for industries, where safety and precious temperature control is a key concern, such as for pharmacy and food enterprises.

The complete set of services offered by Smart Containers

There is a lot of forms and documents that logistics work with. Smart Containers has developed a seamless logistics system LOGI CHAIN, that is designed to solve problems of centralized documentation flow. The guiding principle of the chain is to attach documents not to the person, but to the containers. For that reason LOGI CHAIN will operate on different blockchain protocols and all attachments will be divided into two categories, which are:

-open source blockchain, Ethereum, for storage of the public information of shipments and
-permissive blockchain, such as Fabric, for processing the smart contracts.

An autonomous shipping parcel should eliminate paper documents and emails exchange. As a result, costs will be reduced and any problem that occurs in a supply chain can be solved in time. Smart Containers aims at combining hardware and software. The solution for software relies on blockchain technology. The company has designed cooling containers with the use of technology that allows for steady temperature. The technology is protected by 96 patents.

Smart Containers became the first logistics company to accept cryptocurrencies as a means of payment. In this line, it has a huge impact on invoicing due to high transaction speed.

Partnerships and corporate structure

Smart Containers is headquartered in Switzerland and has two division companies: SkyCell, one of the largest pharmacy container provider, and Food Guardians, a high-technology container provider for food. Top companies of pharma industry already implement SkyCell's solution and validate it as a cost efficient and secure one. Food Guardians improves the logistics of food, which means, it helps supply fresh food. There is a current negotiation on partnerships with strong companies in food industry.

Token Sale Plan

SMARC is a profit-sharing token. To maintain the system, all transactions within LOGI CHAIN will be paid with LOGI token.

Blockchain is believed to have a great potential to change the may logistics is being operated. While relying on blockchain, Smart Containers aims to combine hardware and software. The company proved its skills by implementing its own technology for insulation material. SkyCell provides lighter containers to conduct temperature sensitive shipments. Besides, the team of SkyCell has established solid partnerships with Emirates and Cargolux, two global players in the market. Furthermore, Smart Containers applied its business model in the food sector.

This is vital for the supply chain industry! Especially for pharmaceuticals that need to be maintained at a certain level.

I’m curious to how smart container will compare to competitors such as Vechain which also wants to improve the supply chain industry by having more control over the products being shipped

Shipping transportation of the goods is the largest median of transportation of the world.

Totally agree with that one!
