We analyse the investments made in Marketplace Transporte from a corporate finance perspective. On 30 May 2018, Ontruck received funding worth \u20ac25m from Cathay Innovation, the main investor, and many others.<\/p>\n
OnTruck is the first innovation-driven logistics and transport company, founded with the ambition to ship goods. Its team of professionals has international experience in the technology logistics sector (short and long distance road transport and warehouse management). Their clients include the prestigious sportswear company, Decathlon.<\/p>\n
Founded in 2016, OnTruck is one of the many startups trying to 'digitise' the freight transport market. The aim of the transport company is to have the best global network of operators to make transport contracting as efficient as possible.<\/p>\n
Its proposal in terms of reliability is to seek punctuality and security in shipments thanks to its incident prediction technology and network of qualified carriers. They also guarantee more than 20,000 carriers and assignment technology to make a vehicle available to customers when they need it. In the same way, they manage to be an efficient company thanks to the technology applied to route and price optimisation, and they reduce the environmental impact thanks to minimising empty kilometres. And finally, for the customer's convenience, there is a web-based shipment management and tracking system.<\/p>\n
