Lamar IoT’s Cutting-Edge Tracking Tech Prevents Drugs & High-End Food Products from Perishing
As global supply chains grow more complex, the need for precise tracking and quality control is critical. Traditional tracking systems often fall short, merely pinpointing the location without monitoring essential conditions like temperature or humidity. But for industries moving sensitive items—like high-value medicines and perishable foods—real-time insights into the condition of goods are essential to avoid losses. This is where Lamar IoT steps in. Lamar IoT’s cutting-edge tracking tech integrates advanced sensors for temperature, humidity, and velocity, addressing a major pain point for industries like pharmaceuticals and high-end food. With supply chains under constant strain, a key question arises: Can a more intelligent tracking solution reduce losses and ensure goods remain in top condition?
Welcome to Hammer Down. In this episode, host Mike Bush chats with Dr. Brantly Fulton, the CEO of Lamar IoT, and Raj Kupunaram, the company’s Client Success and Growth Strategy Lead, to explore how the cutting-edge tracking tech provides real-time insights and tracks sensitive goods from origin to destination.
