How the last two years impacted Transporeon and the future of the company. Transporeon’s sustainability initiatives. Acquisition and cultural alignment. What makes Transporeon unique…
 

Andrei Palamariu, host of the “Leaders in Tech and Ecommerce” podcast and APAC Director for Alcott Global Executive Search, and Stephan Sieber, CEO of Transporeon, met more than two years ago. Now, Andrei welcomes Stephan to talk about how Transporeon has evolved since their first meeting.   

There has been a lot going on at Transporeon, in the logistics industry and in the world over the past two years. In this episode, Stephan Sieber elaborates on the company’s successes and challenges, and also shares his vision for the future of Transporeon.  

Martijn Graat, founder of the LogisticsMatter platform, invited our Freight Matching product experts to contribute on some of the biggest questions in transportation right now for another episode of Does LogisticsMatter?

Hermann Ude, Transporeon Supervisory Board Chairman and TTS Managing Partner, and  Gruziana Hoxha, Transporeon’s Executive Director Carrier Management, take the guest spotlight for a conversation dedicated to the role of digitalization in logistics, the power of data and close collaboration, and what’s in store for the next generation of freight forwarders.

Air transport faces cascading problems as both airlines and airports around the world struggle with staffing shortages against a backdrop of surging demand. Heavy delays and cancellations in passenger transport directly impact air cargo — but as lockdowns lift and staffing recovers, we see hope for a better future.

Road freight logistics continue to present significant challenges to both shippers and carriers as capacity remains tight, diesel prices rise, and political and economic uncertainty continues to disrupt the industry.

This week, things are looking up. We take a special focus on air freight, and explore how both cargo and passenger air travel are on the upswing. Despite recent Covid-19 restrictions in China, international air freight levels are returning to pre-pandemic levels, and airlines and manufacturers are both planning for growth.

This week we focus on ocean freight. Capacity has improved and prices have declined, but is it going to last? We look at the short-term effect of recent economic shifts, and what we can expect to see throughout the next year.

The only way forward is to learn from the past. Here are the top lessons that years of disruption caused by a pandemic, Brexit, driver and resource shortages, and political and economic instability have taught us.

Continued market disruptions have led to a rise in reshoring, but experts advise adopting a strategy that incorporates increasing warehouses capacity, improving resiliency via diversification and substitutability, and adopting supply chain visibility as well.

Disruption resulting from rising Covid cases in China continues to have a ripple effect across the whole supply chain. Market inflation is inevitable, meanwhile, experts fear another capacity crisis looms. 

We take a closer look at rising costs in Europe to help you plan ahead as turbulent times in transportation are set to continue.  

Covid. Brexit. Driver shortages. And now the war in Ukraine. The transportation industry has been challenged by crisis after crisis, affecting all transport modes and lanes.

We chart changes in diesel prices and capacity issues across Europe to help you understand the market.

Among several disruptions affecting the global supply chain — including capacity constraints, supply shortages, port congestion, and many others — nothing is as urgent as the war in Ukraine.

We cover its impact on road, ocean, and air freight, including rates, capacity, container availability, and more.

When Brexit went into effect, the whole transport industry was thrown into chaos. 

Now we are reflecting on what’s changed and what’s coming next with Richard Manfield from Transped Europe. 

We discuss what Carriers had to put up with during the Brexit transition as well as what the future of intermodal transport might look like. 

We’re discussing an unfamiliar aspect of a very familiar topic: plastic. Our guest Gergana Stancheva is a Co-Founder of the start-up LAM’ON which produces a 100% biodegradable alternative to plastic laminate and packaging foil.

With the EU banning single-use plastic in July 2021, the topic of plastic laminates is more relevant than ever. Learn more about this invisible material and its environmental impact.

One of the biggest challenges in road transit is what happens at the end of a long drive: finding parking.

This week we talk with Denise Schuster, the CEO of Park Your Truck, which just won the Eco Performance Award within the Start-up Category.

We explore how Park Your Truck’s mission to provide safe, reliable, and sustainable parking for truck drivers fulfills goals set by both the European Commission and the United Nations.

Every day, Coyote Logistics matches 10,000 shipments around the world. They’re using that reach to study sustainability and promote cross-organizational collaboration. 

We speak with Jaap Bruining, SVP Head of Europe at Coyote Logistics, about why they’re using their influence to connect specialists from across the supply chain and how they’re using that knowledge to develop new technologies to help reduce empty miles.
