PCTNA Partners with Gnosis Freight
Prinx Chengshan Tire North America (PCTNA) is partnering with Gnosis Freight, "an artificial intelligence (AI)-native global freight operating system.
The partnership extends "PCTNA’s investment in AI to how freight is tracked and executed," according to PCTNA officials.
"The collaboration introduces Gnosis across PCTNA’s logistics network, providing real-time insight into container movement from port to delivery and giving teams earlier awareness of delays, inventory risk and cost exposure. Gnosis detects issues across ocean, ports, rail, drayage, trucking and customs and orchestrates the next steps through configurable, low-code workflows across systems of record before problems escalate."
"Today’s supply chain challenges demand technology that is both powerful and intuitive,” says Mark Chandler, vice president of supply chain at PCTNA. “In partnering with Gnosis, we will be able to give our customers a clearer view of our supply chain and their container flow. That deeper insight doesn’t just improve forecasting. It directly supports our customers’ ability to place orders and fulfill them because the product they need is in stock exactly when they need it.”
PCTNA officials say the addition of Gnosis’ AI operating system "represents a major step forward in PCTNA’s customer-first approach to supply chain excellence. With always-on visibility and automated exception management, the system helps customers better plan inbound shipments, manage inventory and reduce potential delays. By linking containers to SKU- and inventory-level detail, Gnosis enables teams to know precisely when specific products will arrive. This supports smarter planning, improved on-shelf availability and
more predictable topline performance.
"New Agentic AI workflow builders then automate responses across logistics, finance and operations to reduce demurrage and detention, accelerate invoice resolution and shorten goods-to-cash cycles."
"Real-time visibility into inbound inventory is a game-changer across the entire Prinx and Fortune brand dealer network,” says Ken Coltrane, vice president of product development and marketing at PCTNA. “With Gnosis, our customers gain the clarity and confidence to plan more effectively and serve their markets better - gaining a true competitive advantage."
"Gnosis is proud to partner with PCTNA to bring AI-driven execution and agentic AI-powered workflows to their global operations,” says Austin McCombs, founder and CEO of Gnosis. “Our technology provides the accuracy and transparency today’s supply chains demand, ensuring every container and SKU is tracked and acted on from port to door. The benefits extend beyond visibility. By leveraging Gnosis’ advanced AI models, PCTNA is taking another step toward creating a fully connected supply chain that empowers both its team and its customers with actionable, real-time intelligence.”
PCTNA officials add that this new initiative builds on the company's recent investments, "including its new manufacturing facility in Malaysia and the launch of the A/T2 product line for both Fortune and Prinx Tires."
