Founder Richard White is CEO and the largest shareholder.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>WiseTech develop, sell and implement software solutions that enable logistics service providers to facilitate the movement and storage of goods and\r\ninformation, domestically and internationally. They service around 8,000 logistics organisations across 130 countries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>WiseTech\u2019s flagship technology, CargoWise One, is an integrated global software solution for logistics service providers that enables customers to execute highly complex logistics transactions and manage their operations on one database across multiple users, functions, offices, countries and languages. They operate their own data centres and deliver CargoWise One software principally through the cloud, as SaaS, which customers access as needed and pay for usage monthly.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Markets &amp; Competitors<\/h3>\r\n<p>WiseTech has built a dominant position in its niche market.
