Revolutionizing Turkey's Cargo Industry: A Call for AI Integration

In the vast landscape of 2024, as I scrutinize the plethora of trend reports spanning social media, technology, finance, and beyond, one overarching theme emerges—Artificial Intelligence stands as the defining headline for the year. This revelation comes as no surprise, given that the evolution and anticipation of AI have seamlessly woven into the fabric of our lives. However, when we tailor this narrative to the Turkish cargo market, a disheartening reality surfaces. Are we truly witnessing an approach that can adapt to this impending transformation?

Regrettably, a positive response seems elusive. Consider a sector that operates tirelessly, servicing every corner of the country with thousands of deliveries daily. With millions of customers relying on its services, this industry dispatches parcels to millions of different destinations each day. Astonishingly, the orchestration of these operations still relies heavily on manual processes.

Delving into the past, especially in the middle mile, truck planning was once a system entrusted solely to experienced personnel. Little to no planning was undertaken in the first and last mile stages. While we have made strides since then, incorporating AI for efficient planning remains a distant prospect. The potential of AI in providing comprehensive planning for every stage of transportation is immense.

Unfortunately, the cargo sector in this country lags far behind in technological planning. A profound transformation in operational structure is conceivable with the judicious use of AI. Yet, the management teams within the system seem hesitant to take the necessary steps towards a future-forward framework. We stand poised and ready to embrace these efficient strides, eagerly awaiting the transformation of our operations in alignment with cutting-edge technology.

In an era where AI-induced transformations sweep through all sectors, maintaining an inefficient workflow in the delivery industry appears absurd. The time is ripe for an overhaul, an infusion of AI into the heart of our operations. Let us embark on this journey together, reshaping our approach to the delivery business in tune with the technological zeitgeist.
