Customer Spotlight: Hanhaa
TE really helped us reduce weight, which reduced the cost and the size of the board in addition to improving performance.

Transforming Logistics with IoT Thinking
For Hanhaa CEO Azhar Hussain, the goal was simple: Find a solution for easily tracking parcels anywhere in the world. For the shipping industry, this kind of solution is overdue. Each month, millions of dollars are lost because packages are lost or damaged during transit. After studying the causes closely, the London-based Hanhaa team partnered with Avnet and TE Connectivity to develop ParceLive, an IoT-enabled package-tracking device. As the team quickly learned, coming up with the right idea was only the beginning. Building it, testing it, and bringing it to market was altogether different, requiring the know-how of electronics engineers versed in solving for IoT connectivity. “TE helped us climb a wall before we even realized it was a wall,” says Azhar, adding “TE helped us refine the designs and tune the performance so that the tracker delivered the level of accuracy we needed.”
Partnership Advantage:
