Sewio, a UWB-based real-time location system (RTLS) vendor, today announced it has partnered with Cargocast to create the Smart Warehouse. 

 “We are very excited to partner Sewio to create new levels of automation and optimization in logistics,” said Dan Diephouse, Cargocast CEO. “Sewio’s highly accurate real-time location data allows the Cargocast intelligent engine to ‘uberize’ the movement of freight in the warehouse, delivering significant productivity improvements and delivering differentiated service quality for logistics providers.” 

“It’s great to have on board a company with wide experience and a clear focus on 3PLs, the freight industry, and distribution centers, providing their Smart Warehouse solution to optimize warehouses and workforces in real-time,” commented Milan Šimek, founder and CEO of Sewio Networks.
