eChainLogistics was formed through a joint venture between information technology provider Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC Ploenzke) and international logistics company Dachser GmbH & Co to provide information technology based logistics solutions for the European market. CSC and Dachser formed the new company in response to the rising demand for integrated fulfillment solutions for European e-enabled businesses.
Under the alliance, efoodmanager says its private e-business solution customers will benefit from a cost-efficient, fully integrated one-stop service, which covers the complete supply-chain process from order to delivery.
