Carrypicker

Why did you start your start-up, which problem do you address and how do you solve it?

We asked ourselves why the transport industry cannot do what airlines, hotels or car rental companies have long been able to do
:

With dynamic pricing and autonomous capacity management for maximum utilization and the highest possible return on investment. Carrypicker makes transport easier and more economical by always finding the best carrier and the most intelligent way to our customers.

What is special about your business model, what do you do differently?

At the moment there are many players that are focused on the logistics market in general, but we are the only start-up that can serve the LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) market.

What has been your greatest success so far?

With our idea and vision we were able to convince private investors and also our first pilot customers with whom we are testing the technology. In addition, we will be supported by the BMVI with a Research project supported.

What are your milestones?

Building a customer-friendly product, gaining recognition in Germany, the Netherlands and throughout Europe. Six-figure number of registered carriers. And of course we are very happy to have achieved this title as "Startup of the month" ;)

What is the next challenge for you?

For next year we want to maintain the high growth rate we experienced in the last first year.

Why are you on Startbase?

We are an ambitious start-up with the goal to change the logistics market. In order to continue our enormous growth, we need to maintain our right momentum. We see Startbase as a platform for us to attract strategic investors and future team members. In addition, a strong market presence makes us attractive to other carriers.

What would you recommend to other founders?

We would recommend founders to focus on finding the right investor/partner and the right team members. To find and build a team that believes in the mission of the company.

Where did you meet?

We have met at various industry events over the years and developed a common vision.

Where do you see yourselves in 3 years?

In the next 3 years we want to be a system that benefits the customer, the carrier and the environment. Carrypicker will make one of the most important branches of the German economy fit for the future.

Who is the mastermind in your team and what is its superpower?

The whole team is the mastermind in our start-up. We are enthusiasts who want to make a difference. Not only on the street, but also in the work processes of everyone involved.
