Ocean Network Express (ONE) is the most recent member to join Global Shipping Business Network (GSBN).
This follows ONE’s customers’ successful evaluation of GSBN’s Cargo Release.
According to GSBN, ONE has been a frontrunner in modernizing its enterprise architecture and devising digital solutions to enhance customer experience and further digitalization.
This is significant not only because it facilitates global trade and adds value for customers, but also because sustainability is becoming an increasingly vital issue for the entire industry, according to GSBN.

By joining GSBN, ONE reportedly obtains access to the consortium’s blockchain-enabled platform, which facilitates the secure and trustworthy exchange of data across global transportation supply chains.
This partnership is anticipated to increase consumption efficiency and create additional value.
According to GSBN, the carrier will also benefit from GSBN’s expanding ecosystem of members and applications on its platform, such as Cargo Release, a paperless solution that connects all stakeholders involved at the port of import.
The shipping industry is at a critical juncture where digitalization has the potential to facilitate a quantum advance, according to the CEO of GSBN, Bertrand Chen.
“Trustworthy collaboration is required to make this a success. Chen added, “We are pleased to welcome ONE, a pioneer in digital transformation and sustainability, and we look forward to working with them to contribute to the industry’s digital leap.”
