Roberts Europe teams up with e-kurier.net for European capacity
Time-critical freight logistics company Roberts Europe has signed a partnership agreement with German-based online freight capacity platform “e-kurier.net” to increase its available capacity and generate more business for the courier platform members.
The cooperation with e-kurier.net is part of Roberts Europe’s expansion plan in Germany including restructuring and investment in state-of-the-art automating systems. With the agreement, the company aims at integrating the e-kurier.net solutions in its new planning systems.
Under the partnership, Roberts Europe will have access to spare capacity offered by the platform’s 1,800 German and European members, which will be mostly empty return journeys. It expects to optimise its shipping capacity and thus reduce costs for customers. In return, e-kurier.net’s courier companies will increase their volumes through Roberts Europe’s sales and marketing activities.
The automation systems of both companies are now connected to each other so that Robert Europe can book free shipping space.
Fred Snippe, owner and CEO of Roberts Europe, commented: “e-kurier.net and its members are absolute professionals. We complement each other in our core competences and can therefore achieve a strong win-win situation for all parties.”
