Cadec Global Inc. announced that in addition to its existing diesel fleet vehicles, Willow Run Foods has added Cadec’s PowerVue software to its compressed natural gas (CNG) fleet of vehicles.
Cadec’s PowerVue is a SaaS-based fleet management system. Willow Run Foods is using PowerVue to track the CNG vehicles fuel consumption, along with other valuable driver and fleet information such as driver behavior and productivity, on-time delivery data, vehicle operation and safety, according to Len Basso, vice president, operations, Willow Run Foods.
Willow Run Foods specializes in food distribution for fast food chains throughout the Northeast. As part of the company’s Alternative Transportation Project, the CNG trucks will run mostly in New York City, Long Island and northern New Jersey, helping to offset a high-traffic region with significant greenhouse gas emissions.
The CNG vehicle project is expected to save the company one hundred thousand dollars annually, according to Cadec Global.
