Our take

Growth of the e-commerce industry across the globe and an increase in free trade agreements has fuelled global digital freight forwarding market growth. However, the transport sector continues to be severely affected by strikes, container shortages or health crises.

Ovrsea is a digital freight forwarder management platform that coordinates all operations and digitalises processes. This enables freight companies to optimise international transport, by following the progress of transports in real-time, and having quick access to information, documents and advice in times of disruption.

Their largest customers include Nuxe and Yves Rocher. Ovrsea are planning to continue their focus on hiring to penetrate new markets in Europe, North America and Asia.
