What 24/7 drive does

247 drive B.V., trading as 24/7 drive, is a privately held Dutch staffing specialist focused exclusively on the transport and logistics workforce. Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Son, Netherlands, the firm supplies CE- and rijbewijs-C chauffeurs, distribution drivers, tank drivers, and related logistics personnel to carriers, shippers, and 3PLs across the Netherlands and Belgium. Its candidate base is sourced both domestically and via four Eastern European recruitment offices in Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, and Lithuania, and is processed through a digital stack comprising a multi-language corporate website, an online sollicitatieprocedure, a JobAlert candidate-matching service, and a urenportal for time registration via 3D Salaris. The company holds the full Dutch compliance stack required to supply to enterprise and public-sector buyers, including ABU membership, NEN 4400-1, SNA, SNF, VCU, and WKA-StiPP-aligned payroll.

The firm's commercial offering spans three core modes — uitzending (temporary staffing), detachering (secondment), and Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) — augmented by adjacent services such as Code 95 refresher training, candidate merchandise, a spaarprogramma loyalty scheme, and a dedicated offering for the 65-plus chauffeur segment. In January 2026 the company merged with Consolid to form DriveSolid Academy, a joint training and workforce-development entity aimed at formalizing its position in driver upskilling. Revenue is generated primarily via billable hourly, daily, and weekly rates governed by sector CAOs, supplemented by RPO retainers; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market model is sales-led across 20 physical branches (12 NL, 4 BE, 4 EE) with heavy reliance on referral and community channels.

Operationally, 24/7 drive sits in the mid-market tier of Dutch transport/logistics staffing, with an estimated headcount in the 501–1,000 range and multi-vertical coverage spanning distributie, zeecontainer, tank, afval, bouwmaterialen, and agrarisch logistics. Leadership is centered on owner/Director Mark Ooiman. The firm's growth posture is incremental and extension-led rather than capital-intensive: it deepens branch density, layers on higher-value service lines such as RPO and academy-based training, and institutionalizes cross-border sourcing — but does not appear to be pursuing aggressive consolidation, AI-native platform development, or large-scale inorganic moves beyond the Consolid tie-up.

Revenue model

1. Uitzend- en detacheringsvergoedingen (staffing/detachment fees): Core revenue: billable hourly/daily/weekly rates charged to transport and logistics employers for deployed uitzendkrachten and gedetacheerden. Pricing is quote-based, set per opdrachtgever and aligned with applicable CAO (e.g., TLN, Motorvoertuigen, Textielverzorging, ABU). Includes employer-risk transfer (24/7 drive is wettelijk werkgever).
2. Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO): Full-service HR outsourcing: takeover of part of the client's recruitment/selection process, custom "werken bij" career site, marketing campaigns, modern recruitment and onboarding tools. Sold as a higher-margin alternative to traditional uitzenden.
3. Opleidings- en nascholingsvergoedingen (training/Code 95): Revenue from in-house opleidingstrajecten (C/CE rijbewijs via DriveSolid Academy) and Code 95 nascholing packages (50+ certified courses; group discounts for transporteurs). Partially cross-subsidised: candidates repay a small weekly contribution in year one.
4. Referral bonus pass-through: Bring-a-friend programme pays €250-€500 gross bonus to referring employees per successfully placed colleague; not direct revenue but a retention/acquisition cost line that supports the staffing margin model.

Core offering

24/7 drive is a Dutch/Benelux staffing agency that recruits, selects and dispatches (uitzendt) professional truck drivers (rijbewijs B/C/CE/D) and logistics/warehouse personnel to transport and logistics employers across the Netherlands, Belgium and Eastern Europe. It acts as the wettelijk werkgever, transferring employer risk away from clients, and supports the full candidate-to-placement flow with in-house training (DriveSolid Academy), Code 95 refresher courses, RPO outsourcing, and a 24/7 multi-channel service.

Product overview

24/7 drive operates as a single unified staffing platform for the Dutch/Belgian/Eastern-European transport and logistics sector rather than a multi-product software suite. The core offering is 'Uitzending chauffeurs en logistiek medewerkers' (recruitment, selection and secondment of drivers with rijbewijs B/C/CE/D and warehouse/production staff), supported by tightly integrated sub-services that form one candidate-to-placement flow: the structured 'Inschrijven / Sollicitatieprocedure' candidate onboarding, the 'Opleiding tot vrachtwagenchauffeur' delivered from January 2026 via the newly launched 'DriveSolid Academy' (joint with Consolid), the 'Nascholing Code 95' continued-education catalogue, the '65-plus chauffeur vacatures' flexible-work programme for senior drivers, and the 'Bring a friend bonus programma' referral scheme. Around this the company sells additional modules to employers: 'Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)' as a full-service HR outsourcing add-on, the 'Digitale urenportal' hours-registration portal (operated via 3D-Salaris), the 'JobAlert' e-mail subscription feature, and the points-based '24/7 drive merchandise & kleding assortiment' employee benefits programme. Underlying certifications (ABU membership, NEN 4400-1, SNA/SNF, VCU, WKA) apply across the whole offering.
