Better Territory Management

Bostik was founded as the Boston Black Co. in Chelsea, MA in 1889. It has its origins in the shoe industry and shoe adhesives. In 1929, USM took it over and developed the company on a global scale, focusing on the show industry until the 1950’s when the company embarked on international expansion and diversification. In 1990, Bostik was purchased by TOTAL, a French petroleum company, which carried on growing Bostik by merging it with its own adhesives affiliates. Today, Bostik is among the leading global players in its industry.

The Challenges

Bostik was looking at vehicle tracking systems because they needed to increase it's productivity, improve time management in the field, and ensure employee accountability.

The Benefits

With FleetMatics fleet tracking, Bostik started to see better territory management. A greater insight into the activities of their sales teams has increased productivity significantly. Using the FleetMatics’ POI feature, they are now able to run accurate real time and historical reports and see a vehicle’s daily activity minute by minute.

The Savings

“FleetMatics is a great management tool. With an average order size in the thousands, it’s easy to work out a huge return on investment!”
