Posted on: Thursday, 12 March 2009, 08:04 CDT

RED BANK, N.J., March 12 /PRNewswire/ -- LOG-NET, Inc., an industry leader in international enterprise supply chain software solutions, announced that Hanjin Shipping Corporation, one of the major contributors to global marine transport, was named the recipient of the annual LOG-NET e-commerce excellence award for the third year in row. The award was presented last week at the Journal of Commerce's Transpacific Maritime Conference in Long Beach, California. The award recognizes Hanjin Shipping for its consistent performance across multiple clients and its ability to achieve the highest level of completeness among all ocean carriers rated in the delivery of EDI events LOG-NET customers have selected as most important to them.

The LOG-NET e-commerce award is the industry's highest honor for ocean carrier excellence. The award rates ocean carriers on the set-up and daily execution of electronic commerce interfaces with clients.

"Each year our survey includes hundreds of thousands of containers and operating events," noted John Motley, president and CEO of LOG-NET, Inc. "We review large shippers that are moving tens of thousands of containers a year and smaller shippers that are moving one thousand or fewer containers. We also consider carriers that have set-up for many of our customers and consistently provide quality configuration and transmission of data across various sizes of shippers."

At the award ceremony, LOG-NET made honorable mention of four other carriers for their tremendous performance in each area of e-commerce. Qualifying in the top five were CMA CGM -- fifth place, China Shipping -- fourth place, Yang Ming -- third place, and Hyundai -- runner-up.

"On behalf of LOG-NET, we congratulate the entire Hanjin team," noted John Motley, president and CEO of LOG-NET, Inc. "This is Hanjin's third year in a row for our award and we commend them for their market leadership and continued focus on customer delivery."
