What Cargors does

Cargors B.V. is a Dutch digital freight gateway, founded in 2021 and headquartered at Amsterdam Science Park, that connects SME shippers directly with 500+ verified European carriers for pallet transport across 30+ countries and 99% of European postal codes. The platform, branded as the Cargors Gateway, is a cloud-based product that delivers instant all-in rate quotes (including fuel surcharges and line-haul fees), real-time track and trace, and a consolidated dashboard covering quotes, bookings, labels, CMRs, and invoices. Supporting modules include an AI-powered HS/CN code lookup assistant, a loading meter calculator, a cost analysis tool, per-shipment CO2 emission tracking, and native integrations with e-commerce platforms (Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, Amazon, Bol.com, Zalando) and logistics carriers (DSV, Raben Group, AB Texel, ST vd Brink, Brings) plus a documented API.

The business model is product-led and freemium: no subscriptions, no contracts, free signup with a €50 first-shipment credit, and revenue earned via a transaction/service fee calculated as a percentage of shipment cost and collected when invoicing the shipper. GTM motion combines self-serve SMB acquisition (Cargors Web Portal at portal.cargors.com) with an API-first enterprise channel. Primary customers are SME shippers moving pallets domestically and cross-border within Europe, with secondary segments in e-commerce, wholesale, manufacturing (including automotive corridors), and time-critical/express shippers. The company is privately held, has raised approximately $810K in 2022 across two early rounds, operates with a ~15-person team led by founder Najeeb Qazizada (CEO/CTO) and co-founder Tim Bosman (CCO), and reports 4.9/5 on Google reviews.
