What Routing Systems does

Routing Systems is a privately held Brazilian technology company, founded in 1992 and headquartered in São Paulo, that sells route optimization and last-mile distribution logistics software to enterprises in Brazil and Latin America. Its portfolio spans four core products: PerforMAXXI, a web-based delivery tracking and field execution platform with cockpits, dashboards, and KPIs; Roadshow, a routing engine capable of processing thousands of orders under constraints such as customer time windows, vehicle type rules, regions, and products; Winroute, a hybrid router that uses historical traffic data to generate and compare multiple routing scenarios; and Planejamento Estratégico / Vendas, a five-stage strategic planning module for territory balancing and visit routing. A companion mobile app, MobileMAXXI, feeds field data (GPS, signatures, barcodes, temperature) into PerforMAXXI, and the platform exposes REST APIs, Web services, XML, and Webhooks for integration with third-party systems.

The company also acts as the regional distribution partner for Descartes Systems Group, reselling Descartes' Roadshow, OnDemand, WinRoute, and RoutePlanner products alongside its own. Revenue is generated through quote-based annual software subscriptions, implementation and professional services, and resale margin on Descartes products, sold via a sales-led enterprise field motion (phone, email, contact forms) targeting distribution, logistics, retail, food and beverage, and field-sales-intensive companies. The company claims 1,000+ enterprise customers cumulatively across Brazil and Latin America, with named logos spanning Raia Drogasil, Prosegur, Saint-Gobain, Kerry, Bidfood, Fastshop, and Softys, among others. Routing Systems operates with 1-10 employees, is privately held with no disclosed outside investors, and has not announced funding rounds, M&A, or leadership changes in the available data.
