About CargoSense

Our Story

CargoSense was incorporated in 2012 to explore the market for supply chain automation solutions. Our operations launched formally in late 2013 with initial customers in the pharmaceutical space and by the end of the year, we closed our first round of seed investments. In 2014, we worked with Toshiba and developed a next generation data logger which still has not been surpassed in its ability by any similar device on the market. The following year, more seed funding was raised from numerous Angel funds and individuals. By 2016, CargoSense developed advanced machine learning systems that extracted logistics timelines from logged environmental data for Root Cause Analyses.

A project with a major airline in 2018 lead to a real time monitoring solution for pet shipments. Then, in 2019, we developed our visibility solution embodied in the real-time Control Tower product for our SaaS Cloud platform using a new generation of low cost, real-time sensors. This development helped us to continue to raise further private equity funding.

Market interest in the CargoSense platform was spurred on by the COVID pandemic as technology, pharma, and food corporations became concerned about the fragility of their supply chains. This led to us securing several private label agreements for our Visibility OS. We were instrumental in monitoring the first COVID vaccine shipments flown into the United States. We also assisted another major airline as they certified half their fleet to fly the vaccines to numerous domestic locations.

By 2022, CargoSense was awarded two patents for our virtual QRSensor. This technology continues to be used by the largest parcel shipping company in the world and is a component in our partnership to develop “smart”, recyclable plastic pallets. Another major innovation announced in 2023, is our parcel tracking solution.

In both 2022 and 2023 CargoSense was recognized for the prestigious Inc.5000 award making us one of the fastest growing private companies in the country. We continue to bring our innovative and cost savings approach to the logistics marketplace reflected by our contracts with major Fortune 50 corporations.
