Dole goes with Descartes for EU-compliant customs software

Descartes Systems Group announced that Dole Ocean Cargo Express, a division of Dole Food Company, has selected Descartes' Global Filer to manage its import and export customs filings for the upcoming European Union (EU) regulations on advanced entry (ICS) and exit (ECS) summary declarations.

The Global Filer is part of Descartes' Global Trade Compliance suite, the technology provider said in a statement.

“Dole handles a substantial amount of import and export filings to and from Europe on a daily basis, so optimizing the quality and flow of information across the entire supply chain is a continuous effort and goal. Descartes’ Global Filer is a sophisticated application and the user-friendly dashboard reduces managing the complexity of EU customs processes to a minimum,” said  John Trummel, vice president and general manager for Dole Ocean Cargo Express.
