Capital Seaboard Enlists Cellcontrol Solution to Enhance Driver Safety, Prevent Distracted Driving


BATON ROUGE, La., June 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Cellcontrol, the global leader in mobile device management technology to eliminate distracted driving, announced today that its solution is being deployed by Capital Seaboard, a regional leader in seafood and produce distribution on the East Coast, in all of its commercial vehicles.

Contextual management to mobile devices in the workplace to eliminate distracted driving.

The patented solution includes a mobile application compatible with virtually any mobile device – including iOS, Android and tablets – along with a robust management console for operational control in the office and an IoT device in each vehicle. Capital Seaboard implemented this solution to better protect its drivers and ensure its restaurant and retail customers are properly served across more than one million miles company drivers travel each year.

"We are pleased to announce Capital Seaboard as one of our newest customers and are proud that such a national leader in distribution has taken this proactive step to enforce their driver safety program and policies," said Joe Boyle, chief executive officer of Cellcontrol. "Our Fortune 500 and mid-market commercial customers adopt our proven solution to reduce the expense and liability that comes from the risk of distracted driving."

Serving the Mid-Atlantic, Capital Seaboard's customers rely on the efficient and consistent delivery of seafood and produce to restaurants and retail stores in the region. The company prides itself on its breadth and dpth of knowledge in the foodservice industry and reliability of delivery is essential to fulfilling the Capital Seaboard brand promise. Protecting its drivers while delivering this reliability is a key objective for the company.



"Our delivery vehicles operate in a highly congested region. It was the most practical solution we found to protect our drivers and our neighbors against the risk of incidents from distracted driving," stated Jennifer Bundy, director of transportation for Capital Seaboard.

"Every variable of our business – deliveries in a densely populated area, hundreds of drivers and millions of miles traveled – increases the risk of an accident due to distracted driving. Not to mention that operating a vehicle while on a mobile device is illegal in parts of our delivery radius. Cellcontrol is one of the tools we are using to protect our drivers and community. We are certain this technology will pay for itself in the long run," commented Capital Seaboard President Larry Quinn.
