Case Study: Express Air Systems achieves automated, rapid invoicing with Tradeshift

Express Air Systems GmbH Automates Logistic Invoicing by Shifting to Tradeshift

Express Air Systems GmbH, a German logistics firm founded in 1981 with 16 employees, faced cumbersome, manual invoicing while serving two major global customers. One multinational buyer mandated a switch to Tradeshift, and because roughly half of the company's ~500 monthly invoices go to that customer, rapid and smooth onboarding was critical.

Within two months Express Air integrated Tradeshift (web client → SFTP/XML), automating invoice and credit-note flows and gaining near real-time visibility—partners see invoices within five to six minutes. The result: faster registration and problem resolution, fewer manual steps (staff “hardly ever log into the platform anymore”), satisfied buyers, and measurable improvements in billing efficiency.
