Case Study: Dockflow achieves 80% more location coverage and transparent perishable shipping with Spire

Dockflow combines real-time temperature data with accurate location tracking through AIS data to provide the perishable goods industry greater transparency

Dockflow is a maritime logistics platform specializing in shipping perishables (fruit, vegetables and other short‑shelf‑life goods). Their challenge was creating a reliable track & trace system that combined temperature logger data with continuous location tracking to provide real‑time, end‑to‑end container visibility and accurate ETA forecasts when data loggers lose GSM coverage — so Dockflow turned to Spire and its AIS-data feeds to fill the location gaps.

By integrating Spire’s AIS-data with temperature logs and shipping updates in the Dockflow platform, Dockflow now delivers full shipment transparency, automatic ETA notifications and route performance analytics. The solution increased location coverage by 80%, reduced uncertainty around arrivals, and lets shippers and freight forwarders monitor ETA deviations and carrier performance in real time — all enabled through Spire’s AIS-data.
