In seven years, UTURN has already become the largest container platform in Europe and is being regularly compared to Uber. In fact, UTURN's strength also lies in bringing together supply and demand by digitising, automating and making existing ways of working more transparent. UTURN operates in 13 countries, has 2,500 connected carriers and over 750 international customers including Flexport, UPS, and MSC.

But we are far from finished; our ambitions and drive are much bigger. In the coming years we want to grow into Europe's largest platform in the industry and take our first steps across the big pond.
