Descartes buys BoxTop

[ June 17, 2024   //   ]

US logistics software company Descartes Systems has acquired Winsdor, UK-based BoxTop Technologies, for about £10.25 million.

BoxTop helps its customers managed secure and efficient movement of goods from quoting through to routing, booking, and final delivery and is already a Descartes partner, using the latter’s Global Logistics Network  for multimodal shipment visibility and to complete electronic customs filings.

Descartes’ chief executive, Edward Ryan, the acquisition would help it deliver more value to manage the lifecycle of shipments and had been working successfully with BoxTop for a number of years, making this the next logical step in its partnership.
