Ecotrans

What Ecotrans does

Ecotrans is a Spanish road-freight and logistics operator founded in 2013 and headquartered in La Roda (Albacete) with additional offices in Valls and Lleida. It runs a fleet of 140+ trucks — including the first 100% electric Volvo FH Electric registered in Albacete province and CNG/LNG-powered vehicles — and serves enterprise and mid-market customers across industrial/manufacturing, e-commerce/retail (notably as an Amazon Relay carrier, four-time Mile Master 2021-2024), and animal-feed verticals. Service lines span national and international road freight, logistics and supply-chain management, e-commerce cross-docking, outsourcing, and a specialized industrial-scale calibration/metrology service, supported by an owned CNG/LNG refueling station (Gasinera Ecotrans) and a vehicle disinfection center.

Underlying technology is a proprietary fleet-management and traceability ecosystem: real-time GPS telemetry feeds the TrazaTrack mobile/web application, which provides automatic geolocation, digital customer signatures, delivery-note and route-sheet queries by client/date, PDF export, and online trip and client-statement reporting. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and GMP+ certifications for feed and food transport and is a member of the UN Race to Zero / PYMES Climate Hub.

The revenue model is a mix of transaction-fee road-freight services (per shipment or route, priced by distance/cargo/volume), professional-services fees for metrology and scale calibration, and transaction-fee refueling revenue from the La Roda CNG/LNG station. GTM is enterprise field sales supplemented by event-driven demand generation (Amazon FASTforward, SIL Barcelona, National Transport Awards). Pricing is contract-based and not publicly disclosed. In October 2024 Ecotrans was acquired by Groupe Mauffrey, now operating as Mauffrey Ibérica, and in December 2024 acquired Transports Masip to add 10 dedicated feed-transport vehicles.
