What is Parcel Management?
In cross-border e-commerce, sending goods is the first step of a long journey. The real challenge for businesses and logistics companies is to ensure delivery and get the products into the hands of the recipients. Logistics visualization has become a crucial challenge in this industry.
Recently, eTower, the end-to-end Logistics Software Platform for international e-commerce under WallTech, announced a partnership with the international B2B SaaS platform AfterShip, completing system integration.
