Our take

Cargomatic is aiming to be the "Uber for truckers", offering a platform that connects shippers with truckers ready to move their cargo.

Much like Uber, Cargomatic lets shippers post available jobs and helps drivers find the most efficient routes. The platform then presents these opportunities to a network of vetted, local drivers. To ensure quality, Cargomatic checks each driver's insurance and commercial licenses, ensuring they have the right experience to safely transport goods.

While others have tried - and failed - to bring Uber-like models to the world of transport logistics, Cargomatic faces an even tougher challenge. Managing cargo insurance, driver qualifications, dispatchers, pick-ups at warehouses, and drop-offs at shipping destinations creates a complex web of logistics. Since its founding the company has demonstrated an ability to thrive in this challenging space, positioning itself for long-term success in the industry.
