Intermodal South America 2025, the largest and most comprehensive logistics solutions event in South America, will take place from April 22nd to 24th, 2025, at the new Anhembi District in São Paulo. This edition will bring together more than 500 exhibiting brands, showcasing technological and operational innovations for the logistics, intralogistics, freight transport, and foreign trade sectors.
According to the event organizers, the 2025 edition will reflect the growth of strategic areas for modernizing the logistics chain, such as intralogistics and logistics warehouses, which have already registered a 20% increase in the number of confirmed exhibitors. “These segments are in full expansion, driven by the growing demand for agility and technology in storage and distribution operations. This evolution accompanies the advancement of e-commerce and the new profile of digital consumption, which challenges the logistics sector to constantly adapt,” highlights head of the Infrastructure and Technologies portfolio at Informa Markets.
Technology: an indispensable tool
A long-time exhibitor at Intermodal South America, Logcomex is one of the leading representatives of the technological innovation segment focused on international logistics. The company offers solutions that integrate all segments of foreign trade, providing insights that underpin decision-making and bring greater control over operations, increasing the negotiating power and competitiveness of companies.
Among the technologies offered by the company to the market, LogManager allows operators to plan and monitor reliable, real-time updated information, with predictability of all stages of shipment and predictive alerts, in order to optimize the entire operation and mitigate extra costs. Through automated processes, the solution speeds up customs clearance and reduces human error, increasing operational performance.
Foreign Trade: Specific Challenges
Logcomex co-founder and CEO Helmuth Hofstatter believes that participating in international trade presents specific challenges. “Foreign trade is a very dynamic area, and the norms and rules governing the sector are constantly changing, requiring companies to be agile in adapting to regulatory processes. Logcomex solutions facilitate overcoming these challenges through automation, using AI, of the various stages of import and export, including document management within legal requirements,” he explains.
The executive cites the Product Catalog, a tool launched in 2024, which allows importers to automate the process of creating, reviewing, and publishing product attributes in accordance with the New Import Process (NPI), using AI. LogOS uses AI to automate the creation of processes and workflows by reading complex documents (e.g., invoice, packing list, BL). The tool allows for a reduction of up to 70% in the time spent on manual tasks, in addition to providing financial management of foreign trade operations, bringing more transparency to cash flows.
Intralogistics
Another logistics segment gaining prominence at Intermodal South America 2025 is intralogistics, heavily impacted by technological innovation. “Technology has revolutionized all areas, and intralogistics is no exception. With AIoT (Artificial Intelligence + IoT), the management of forklift and overhead crane fleets is undergoing the biggest revolution in the market. Electronic equipment collects everything that happens in these machines, and AI helps bring more security to operations, making fleet management much more efficient,” analyzes Menotti Franchescini, CEO of Softrack. The company is one of more than 500 exhibiting brands at Intermodal 2025.
According to the executive, Softrack's technology solves challenges faced by companies in managing fleets of equipment such as forklifts and overhead cranes. “Our proprietary telemetry system combines software and hardware with IoT, Cloud, Big Data, AI, and automation. The electronic equipment installed directly on the forklift or overhead crane captures machine data and provides detailed information about the fleet. Using our telemetry, companies can optimize equipment management, operator training, impact sensors, and identify operational improvements,” he explains.
These and other intralogistics solutions can be seen at Intermodal South America, from April 22nd to 24th, at the Anhembi District in São Paulo.
