SAN DIEGO, December 18, 2017—SmartDrive Systems, a leader in video-based safety and transportation intelligence, today announced it was named to Food Logistics’ 2017 FL100+ Top Software and Technology Providers list for the fourth consecutive year. Each year, Food Logistics recognizes the top companies whose products and services are crucial to the success and safety of the global food and beverage supply chain. SmartDrive earned this recognition for SmartDrive 360, the solution that enables fleets to deploy up to four cameras to gain 360-degree visibility and insight into risk. Inclusion in the FL100+ underscores SmartDrive Systems’ commitment to improving safety, exonerating drivers of commercial vehicles and enabling companies to make better business decisions with transportation intelligence.

“We continue to see fleets of all sizes and operational profiles adopt video-based safety and analytics as a core element of their transportation safety programs, and the food and beverage supply chain sector is no exception,” said Steve Mitgang, CEO of SmartDrive. “We are honored to be recognized once again by the editorial team at Food Logistics, and pleased to be in the company of other innovative providers and suppliers.”

The complete list of this year’s FL100+ Top Software and Technology Providers is published in the November/December 2017 print issue of Food Logistics, and online at www.foodlogistics.com. The companies profiled offer solutions that benefit the industry in a myriad of ways including reducing food waste, extending shelf life, facilitating safe and clean transportation of product and maintaining regulatory compliance.

“New developments and innovations in the software and technology sector are making sizeable impacts on the global food supply chain,” notes Lara L. Sowinski, editorial director for Food Logistics and its sister publication, Supply & Demand Chain Executive. “The result is greater visibility, improved regulatory compliance, enhanced shelf life for perishables and the emergence of a more proactive and nimble food supply chain that benefits both the food industry and its logistics partners, as well as the end consumer.”
