Thirty years of getting freight where it said it would be
Movntra started with two people, one customs licence and a conviction that logistics is a service business before it is a transport business. That has not changed.
How we got here
Two people and a licence
Movntra opens in Rotterdam as a customs brokerage serving a handful of local importers.
Freight forwarding begins
Customers ask us to book the freight as well as clear it. We say yes.
First port-centric site
Felixstowe opens, taking an entire road leg out of our customers’ import chains.
Air hub at Frankfurt
A dedicated air operation opens, with validated cold-chain capability from day one.
Carbon neutral
We reach carbon neutrality across our own operations, five years ahead of target.
Four things we do not compromise on
Answer the phone
Every account has a named coordinator and a direct line. Out of hours, someone is still on call.
Say it early
A problem shared at 9am has options. The same problem at 5pm has consequences.
Get the detail right
Commodity codes, pallet configurations and booking windows are where margin quietly disappears.
Reduce, then offset
Structural changes first — port-centric handling, modal shift, better utilisation. Offsets last.
