Iceland Foods Awards Trakm8 Optimisation & Telematics Contract Extension
Trakm8, the AIM-listed telematics and data provider to the global market place, is pleased to announce it has been awarded a contract extension by Iceland Foods Limited, the UK's leading frozen food retailer.
The contract extension covers the provision of Trakm8's Route Monkey Optimisation software and updates Trakm8's Roadsense telematics with Trakm8's latest "RoadHawk 600" integrated 4G video and telematics solution, with data provided via Trakm8's latest data solution "Insight".

Trakm8, through Route Monkey and Roadsense, has been providing solutions for over 1,500 Home delivery vehicles and optimising over 11 million deliveries per year.
