Our vision is to create the “Terminal of the Future” by uniting several regional development projects into a single, fully connected unit. At our largest import terminal, we are integrating advanced computer vision applications, digital twin technologies, and RTLS solutions — representing one of the most comprehensive computer vision implementations in any parcel terminal. This initiative will deliver our first truly connected terminal, serving as a scalable model for the rollout of similar concepts across at least 12 additional terminals in the Nordics.

The Pop in MY Job:
In my many years in Logistics I have been driven by challenging the current to improve processes, quality, and cost with the aim of improving customer satisfaction. The use of technologies as IoT, ML, AI, (Computer Vision), Digital Twins, Gen AI and Agentic AI gives so many opportunities we never had before. The pleasure of addressing challenges with these technologies is motivating and the knowledge that we can help with any challenge is truly rewarding.
