Our History

2022

In January 2022 Transporeon kicked off the year with a strategic partnership with Freightos, the global freight booking platform, adding key data feeds to extend its market intelligence reach and depth. Later in the year an alliance with UTA Edenred introduced the availability of a co-branded fuel card to Transporeon’s community of operators. Innovation was in full flow during the year with the launch of Carbon Visibility, additional capability added to Real Time Yard Management and the introduction of Freight Matching for Forwarders. Two further acquisitions took place early in the year with the addition of SupplyStack, a key player in transportation management, and Nexogen, a leading operative in the LSP market for fleet optimisation. Then later in the year Transporeon acquired Tracks, a start up focused on sustainability with a key product offering sophisticated carbon calculation algorithms. To end a busy year Transporeon announced that Trimble, an industrial technology company transforming the way the world works, were to acquire them to strengthen and accelerate their connect and scale strategy, particularly in their transportation division.

2021

In January Transporeon partners with Peripass to offer enhanced Yard Management solutions and bridge the gap between the road and the loading dock. At the same time, Real-time Yard Management enters the pilot phase. Combining Time Slot Management with Real-Time Visibility information allows dynamic rebooking of time slots and provides a real-time view of yard activities. In June Transporeon acquired TNX Logistics. TNX provides autonomous spot freight procurement services. Their technology optimizes spot buying by reducing costs and increasing efficiency, with Artificial Intelligence leading pricing and decision-making. It is used by some of the largest and most demanding freight forwarders, brokers and shippers across five continents. This acquisition helps Transporeon by offering cost savings - through the use of advanced technology- to shippers and forwarders. This will allow them and current customers to save more than 7% on their usual spot freight costs. In the latter part of the year Transporeon further extended its partner network with several parties including Tive, a leading in-transit visibility provider, Roambee, a sensor-driven supply chain visibility leader and Zejku, a digital communications provider. In addition Transporeon advanced its sustainability initiatives with a commitment to climate neutrality and a focus on the Fit for 55 program. Finally in December, a further acquisition was made with LogitOne ensuring Transporeon’s future capability in ocean execution and visibility.

2020

Transporeon celebrates its 20th anniversary. Today, the company is one of the world’s leading logistics platforms with almost 1,000 employees in 11 offices around the world all working towards the common purpose of bringing transportation in sync with the world. In March the company launches its new logistics portal Transporeon Insights including a dashboard view of the most recent data on its platform and their market intelligence work. This is further enriched with high-quality content such as eBooks, blog posts, videos and news content from media partners. In July Transporeon becomes a member of the European Technology Platform ALICE as the first TMS provider. The members of ALICE share the same ambition of making logistics in Europe more efficient and eco-friendly through constant innovation. In September Transporeon starts creating the largest visibility-enabled network and upgrades its network to make Real Time Visibility a standard for all their shipper and carrier customers. Also, in September, the company merges with ControlPay, the European leader in Freight Audit and Payment solutions.  

2019
