About us
Did you know there are 50,000 freight carriers in Australia? We connect this "long tail" of trucking capacity to Australia's largest shippers such as FMCG companies. We use technology to efficiently allocate supply and demand, and thereby eliminate the enormous waste in the industry. Every third truck on Australian roads today drives empty - imagine the environmental impact you can have!
