October 2019 – Global eTrade Services (GeTS), a global trade platform
company, today announced the onboarding of Swivel Software Limited (Swivel) and
its community of users onto GeTS’ Open Trade Blockchain (OTB), a permissioned
blockchain of trusted nodes built for the trade communities.
Swivel
— a leading logistics technology provider that facilitates supply chain
visibility among multiple stakeholders in over 30 countries, will use GeTS’ OTB as
a trusted blockchain platform for its ecosystem of importers/exporters,
truckers, forwarders, customs brokers, insurance and financial service

delighted that Swivel is leveraging on our blockchain platform to enhance their
supply chain’s data authentication. By
