Jade Software enjoys record q3 international growth
Jade Software enjoys record third quarter growth in international markets
Christchurch, 20th October 2014 - Jade Software’s product for ports, Jade Master Terminal, is in demand from marine terminals all around the world. Mixed cargo ports are faced with increasing complexity and the need to react more quickly to remain competitive. This is driving their decision to adopt Master Terminal as their terminal operating system.
Already in use by mixed cargo ports and terminals from New Zealand to Norway, Jade has secured 19 new terminals across the Middle East, Europe and Africa (EMEA) in the last three months to September.
Jade Managing Director, David Lindsay says, “Demand has been building for the product over the last two years as legacy systems struggle to deal with demand for integration and visibility across the supply chain when managing mixed cargo and industry pressure.”
Jade’s focus on mixed cargo ports and terminals is paying off, as this is the fastest growing segment of the port market. “We believe this acceleration is a trend that will continue and therefore we’re committed to invest in building capability, particularly off-shore” said Lindsay. Combined with its growing reputation for high quality software, timely implementations, and support capability, Jade is becoming increasingly well positioned to assume the number one position in this market.
While this past quarter has seen success in the EMEA region, Jade is also focused on driving growth in the US market and expects to secure significant new business from this region in the next six months.
Lindsay adds, “This growth would mean Jade would double the size of its international offices to ensure it continued to provide the best local experience for its customers. Implementations are currently underway in Africa, Europe, USA and Central America.
“Jade will stay focussed on maintaining its hard-won reputation. This goes beyond the software. The relationship with our customers and improving their business is hugely important and this emphasis will continue.”
