Trucking is one of the most essential industries in the global economy — food, masks and pharmaceuticals are of little value if we can’t get them to those who need them. As Covid19 continues to spread, millions of aging truck drivers remain on the road — ensuring critical goods can get from point A to point B. Moving forward, new technologies will shift the burden of work away from the field, allowing trucking companies to do more with less.

In this conversation with Jeff McCaig, owner of North America’s third largest dry bulk and tanker company, Trimac Transportation, Trevor Adey VP of Digital at Trimac, and BSV investor John Mannes, we discuss how the trucking industry is responding to the pandemic and the role technology has to play in keeping drivers safe and deliveries on schedule.
