About CtrlChain

CtrlChain is a logistics technology company based in Eindhoven, Netherlands, specializing in digital freight management solutions. Originally founded in 2018 as ChainCargo, the company rebranded to CtrlChain in early 2024 to better reflect its evolution from a regional freight service provider to a full-scale digital logistics platform. Their mission is to create an automated logistics ecosystem that eliminates empty runs for carriers and streamlines operations for shippers and transport companies alike.

CtrlChain offers a state-of-the-art Transportation Management System (TMS) designed to simplify complex freight operations by reducing manual tasks and providing real-time visibility into shipments. This platform empowers customers to optimize routes, increase efficiency, and reduce costs, while also improving service levels. The company has expanded beyond its original European market, opening offices in Barcelona and Chicago to serve clients in the United States as well.

A key part of CtrlChain’s growth strategy involves strategic partnerships, such as the collaboration with NewCold, a global leader in cold chain logistics. This partnership combines CtrlChain’s transport optimization technology with NewCold’s expertise in automated warehousing and cold storage solutions, enhancing supply chain efficiency in temperature-controlled logistics.

Sustainability is also central to CtrlChain’s approach. The company offsets 100% of CO₂ emissions generated by every shipment and offers customers the option to compensate for up to twice their carbon footprint, supporting greener supply chains.

With a team of over 80 professionals, CtrlChain is committed to transforming freight logistics by harnessing data-driven innovation. Their solutions make supply chains more transparent, efficient, and environmentally responsible, positioning CtrlChain as a forward-thinking leader in the digital logistics space.
