Case Study: Continental Express boosts fleet visibility and protects cold chain operations with ORBCOMM VIACHAIN

Continental Express drives results with ORBCOMM technology

Continental Express, a food-service carrier with more than 550 trucks and 1,250 reefer trailers, needed better visibility into its dry and refrigerated fleet to reduce driver burden, protect cargo quality, and control rising operating costs. Using ORBCOMM’s VIACHAIN IoT and trailer monitoring technology, the company sought real-time temperature, location, and asset data to support daily operations and improve retention.

ORBCOMM’s solution gave Continental Express remote monitoring, refrigerated trailer alerts, historical temperature data, and asset-tracking visibility through an API-fed in-house driver app. The result has been less need for manual trailer checks, faster issue resolution, better proof for rejected-load claims, improved compliance support, and stronger operational efficiency—helping Continental Express grow while managing costs and planning for additional expansion.
