Our take

Brenger provides a platform that automatically connects couriers that are on the road with excess space in their vehicles that are already on route with orders for private individuals. Its solution solves two problems; individuals buying large items from online marketplaces can easily get professional transport, and couriers can fill up their trucks more efficiently, making more money in the process and reducing CO2 emissions.

In 2019 Brenger launched for the B2C market, allowing companies like furniture stores to use its service to make deliveries. A milestone was its partnership with Marktplaats.nl, the largest online marketplace for second-hand items in the Netherlands.

Brenger is active in the Netherlands and Belgium, with a network of over a thousand partner carriers. The company has recently launched its services in West Germany, with the intention of expanding further internationally. Growing steadily, it is well poised to achieve its aim of reducing 20,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions by 2025.
