We are sennder, Europe's leading digital freight forwarder, offering shippers access to our connected fleet of thousands of trucks. In a traditional industry, we are moving fast and focusing on the digitalization and automation of all road logistics processes. We deploy over 40,000 trucks across Europe, with access to more than 120,000 vehicles, and have a team of over 1,000 people. By leveraging our proprietary technology, we are creating an ecosystem that leads the industry into the 21st century with enhanced transparency, efficiency, and flexibility, as well as advanced sustainable transport solutions. Our mission is to leverage data to create an efficient road freight network by connecting the best shipper experience with a carrier platform that enables trucking companies to run their businesses more profitably and with lower emissions. We aim to make freight transportation more efficient, transparent, and reliable for all parties involved.

Founded in 2015, we have quickly established ourselves as a leader in the digital freight industry. By leveraging technology and data analytics, we match shippers with carriers in real-time, optimizing routes and reducing costs for everyone. Our platform provides shippers with seamless access to the largest network of carriers across Europe and gives carriers unprecedented access to a large offering of high-quality loads from enterprise shippers. We use innovative solutions like journey visualization to help carriers plan their trips to avoid driving empty or at reduced capacity, increasing efficiency and revenues. Carriers also benefit from fast payment, fuel, and tire discounts. For shippers, our platform offers unprecedented visibility into the transportation process through load tracking and digital management capabilities. We are committed to reducing empty kilometers by using data and real-time tracking to pair the nearest carrier with a load and construct the most efficient route. Our algorithm matches supply with demand at scale – the bigger our platform becomes, the greater its efficiency savings. We also offer advanced fuels that reduce carbon emissions. We are proud to be a purpose-driven business focused on creating a greener, more efficient future for road freight in Europe.
