_OpenPort Solutions’ provides better than market liquidity for transporters and irrefutable transparency for shippers_

[OpenPort](https://openport.com/), the digital logistics platform that uses blockchain technology to transform road transport in emerging markets, today announced the launch of ‘OpenPort Solutions’, a joint venture with XVC Logistics, the Philippines based logistics operation. The joint venture will see the launch of OpenPort’s blockchain-enabled electronic Proof of Delivery Program (ePOD) and micro-rewards program.

Prior to forming OpenPort Solutions, OpenPort paid XVC Logistics for several shipments in Bitcoin while XVC Logistics has paid OpenPort in Ether for access and use of the OpenPortOpenTM (transport management) software and Driver App, an application that allows truck drivers to use their phones to capture electronic Proof of Delivery and send shipment data during transport.
