London, Oct. 23, 2017 – Zenkraft and Purolator are pleased to announce the launch of Zenkraft’s new online shipping application that integrates Purolator’s Canadian shipping services with Salesforce® customer relationship management (CRM) software and cloud computing.

App users are able to access accurate shipping estimates, generate international shipping forms, create shipping and return labels, schedule pickups and track deliveries in real time.

“We are delighted about the launch of our Purolator application, enabling businesses of all sizes to have a more efficient and streamlined shipping process from beginning to end. As organizations are building more of their business applications on Salesforce, they are searching for solutions like ours that are robust, secure and can be implemented and rolled out in hours, not days,” explains James Lumb, CEO of Zenkraft.
