A South Korean-Argentinian joint venture will open offices in Montevideo in the second quarter of 2023 to direct its operations in Latin America.

The Avancargo-Coconut Silo Joint Venture consists of Coconut Silo, a start-up based on deep tech and artificial intelligence in South Korea, and Argentina’s Avancargo, the first on-demand land cargo transportation service in the neighbouring country. 

The joint venture company aims to transform logistics and create an economic, social and environmental impact in the region through a technological hub.

"We seek to enhance our research and development capacity in technology for the freight forwarding and logistics industry throughout Latin America. We are going to enrich and develop new products tailored to large clients and freight providers in the region. There are great expectations, since it is a way to collaborate and unite the experience of two companies that are dedicated to the same problem in two different parts of the world," says Diego Bertezzolo, co-founder and CEO of Avancargo.

Avancargo and Coconut Silo are working on a joint solution so that the logistics and land freight transportation industries develop more efficiently in the region.

Forkliftaction's JOB MARKET

It’s the year 2000. You’re in front of a boxy beige desktop waiting for the screeching ramblings of your dial-up to reach its finale. You go to Yahoo!, MSN, or maybe AOL, and start the mind-numbing process of finding your very specific needle in the digital haystack. And with web pages loading one image at a time, patience isn’t just a virtue – it’s a requirement!

As clumsy as this early iteration seems now, this technology was the great enabler that allowed Forkliftaction to connect to the industry across the globe.  

To everyone who has connected with Forkliftaction in the past 25 years, thank you for your contribution to our success! We feel deeply touched by your words of encouragement.
