What Gondrand does

Gondrand, now operating as NTG Road AG, is a Swiss and Liechtenstein road freight and logistics subsidiary wholly owned by NTG Nordic Transport Group A/S, a publicly listed Danish freight forwarding group (Nasdaq Copenhagen). Founded in 1866, the entity traces 150+ years of logistics heritage, evolving from traditional haulage to integrated logistics services. The company delivers road freight services across the entire European road network (Sicily to the North Cape, Portugal to the Urals) via its own operations and trusted partner networks, supplemented by air freight, ocean freight, customs clearance (24/7), warehouse logistics, and intermodal solutions.

Its specialized offerings address regulated and temperature-sensitive cargo: GMP+- and GDP-compliant pharmaceutical transport, deep-freeze transport for foodstuffs and pharmaceuticals, and ADR-compliant dangerous goods handling. The customer base is horizontal B2B freight shippers requiring reliable cross-border road transport, complex customs coordination, and specialized cargo compliance. The company operates from two physical branches: a main Swiss office in Romanshorn and a Liechtenstein office in Schaanwald, both staffed to handle customs, express, project transport, road freight, and warehouse logistics.

NTG Road AG generates revenue on a transaction-fee basis, charging per-shipment or per-contract for transport and logistics services, with pricing dependent on transport mode, distance, volume, and special handling requirements. Go-to-market is sales-led via direct office contact, phone, email, and website quote-request forms; no proprietary digital platform, app, or API is disclosed. The entity functions as a regional Swiss/Liechtenstein sales and operations node within NTG Nordic Transport Group's broader 20+ country network, inheriting cross-sell potential for air, ocean, project transport, and 4PL services from the parent.
