Case Study: Cars&Cargo achieves lower empty runs and faster growth with Alpega Group’s Teleroute

Teleroute Freight Exchange Supports Fast Growth of Cars&cargo With Building a Network and Cutting Down on Empty Runs

Cars&Cargo, a Dutch transport company specializing in the Benelux and French markets, faced the challenge of rapidly expanding its operations while eliminating costly empty runs for its trailer fleet. To support its fast growth, the company turned to the Alpega Group's Teleroute Freight Exchange to find freight and optimize its logistics network.

By intensively using the Teleroute platform, Cars&Cargo's planners could efficiently find loads to fill empty kilometres, primarily for return trips from France. The solution provided by Alpega Group enabled the company to source approximately ten percent of its shipments through the exchange. This strategic use of Teleroute contributed to a turnover growth from a few million to twenty-two million euros and had a significant three percent impact on the company's bottom-line operating profit.
