Kilcoy Global Foods of Mundelein, Ill., has deployed the Nexterus transportation management system (TMS) to help with managing freight and getting better reporting on its freight spend. Kilcoy Global Foods North America provides food products to independent restaurants and national chains, such as Walmart, Trader Joe’s, TGI Fridays and Costco.
“When our current TMS was sunsetting, we looked for a new TMS and ran into Nexterus,” said Rebecca Hoban, freight coordinator, Kilcoy Global Foods. “The Nexterus TMS provides us with flat rate pricing instead of spot quotes to make our pricing more consistent. Plus, we get detailed daily and weekly shipment and invoice detail reports to manage our freight spend better. Nexterus customized our invoice report to give us specific criteria that our accounting team needed. Working with Nexterus has freed up much time with rating our shipments and reporting actual freight spend to focus more on caring for our customers."
