Our take

The trade of commercial vehicles like trucks and vans is in need of digitisation. At the moment, it is a very time-consuming and cost-intensive sector that requires long journeys for on-site inspections of vehicles, and supplies limited international market reach for traders. Truckoo wants to change this with its online vehicle trading platform.

Truckoo’s digital platform connects sellers and dealers on an international level. Clients benefit from a standardised inspection process to ensure trustworthy vehicle conditions, a worldwide repair shop partnership and an end-to-end online sales process.

Truckoo had already built a client network encompassing 900 dealers and over 1000 company customers before its modest funding round in 2024. Its pre-seed success places Truckoo in a confident position moving forward, as it invests in further development.
