Driving efficiency at the gate: its experience with Matilda Technologies. Atlanta Bonded Warehouse LLC (ABW) is a leading 3PL provider of food-grade, temperature-controlled warehousing and distribution services across the Southeast. With more than 75 years of experience working with customers across the United States, its company handles 700+ million cases and 8.8 million pallets across 7.4 million square feet of warehouse space every year. Its in-house carrier, Colonial Cartage Corporation, takes these services a step further by offering LTL service throughout the Southeast, Southwest, Midwest, and Great Plains. The operational bottleneck at the gate. In supply chain operations, efficiency at the dock door starts at the guard shack. As document requirements kept growing and getting more complex, processing drivers in and out of its facilities got harder and slower. Paper-heavy workflows create friction, slow down truck turns, and tie up administrative resources that could be better deployed elsewhere. Atlanta Bonded needed a solution that eliminated the paper trail without disrupting its core warehouse execution. Why Atlanta Bonded chose M.Folio. Atlanta Bonded chose M.Folio, Matilda Technologies' electronic bill of lading (eBOL) platform, for practical reasons. Atlanta Bonded value strong vendor partnerships and operational reliability, and Atlanta Bonded saw positive validation from other operations that had already implemented M.Folio. Just as importantly, it integrates smoothly alongside its Blue Yonder WMS, meaning its teams didn't have to overhaul how they run the warehouse to make it work. How Atlanta Bonded use it in its operations. M.Folio centralizes shipment documentation into a single digital platform where documents are signed and retrieved electronically. In a high-volume distribution environment, efficiency is everything. Some of its trucks carry more than 30 bills of lading, and with M.Folio, the driver signs just once. That single signature is captured across every individual BOL, securely recorded, and instantly accessible whenever Atlanta Bonded need it for audits or customer inquiries. The results. The payoff has been immediate and measurable. Its administrative team no longer spends valuable time manually scanning and uploading every bill. At the gate, its guard shacks went from three people down to two, reallocating labor to higher-value tasks. For its customers, that translates directly to faster turns, immediate access to signed BOLs, and a complete, transparent audit trail.
