Wallis Customers Keep
on Track - 7th August 2001
Leading shipping and freight forwarding
agency Wallis Shipping, based in Colchester, is installing
a new website that will enable its worldwide customers
to keep a track of their cargo.
The website www.wssl.co.uk,
designed by Wallis' sister company Dominion, will
allow customers to follow their goods as they are
shipped around the globe with just a click of the
mouse.
It will also speed up the initial preparation as
clients can ask for quotes, book shipments and calculate
exact departure and arrival times because the site
is linked to a world time zones calculator.Existing
and new clients will be given a password to give them
access to a secure area of the web site with information
on their cargo, while general areas will contain general
shipping information and simplified procedures for
international documentation.
"Communication is a vital part of what we do
here and ensuring our customers get the best quality
of service is crucial," says Stuart Gregory,
managing director of Wallis Shipping. "We are
using new technology to enhance our personalised service
and eventually our tracking system will give clients
and us a unique facility that demonstrates our commitment
to quality".
