Grupo Verko

What Grupo Verko does

Grupo Verko (legal entity Verko Logística LTDA, CNPJ 29.794.317/0001-29) is a privately-held Brazilian logistics operator founded in 1999, headquartered in Itapevi, São Paulo, with a 25+ year operating history. The company delivers an integrated, multi-modal logistics portfolio spanning road freight (national and South American LTL/FTL), cabotagem coastal shipping, international maritime transport, air freight, warehousing, e-commerce fulfillment, international courier, customs clearance and foreign trade advisory, and operational outsourcing. It serves importers/exporters, e-commerce sellers, domestic freight shippers, and cabotagem clients, with primary demand drivers being customs complexity, multi-modal coordination, and end-to-end supply chain visibility.

Its technology backbone is a set of proprietary systems: a Warehouse Management System (WMS) for inventory control, cross-docking, picking and expedition; a real-time Cargo Tracking System providing origin-to-destination traceability across all modes; KPI dashboards for delivery performance monitoring; and a Foreign Trade Management System with real-time process tracking and management reports. Operational scale includes 30,000m² of Triple A warehouse space with 15,000 pallet positions, a 400+ driver fleet covering 70 million km annually, and 4,000 deliveries per day, all backed by full licensing (General Warehouse-Warrant, ANVISA, Civil and Federal Police) and LGPD-compliant data handling.

The business model combines transaction-fee freight and courier services, professional-services revenue from customs clearance, and managed-services revenue from warehousing and operational outsourcing. Go-to-market is primarily direct B2B sales through six regional branches across Brazil, supplemented by a self-service website channel for tracking and collection requests, social media presence on Facebook/Instagram/LinkedIn, and partnerships with international ocean carriers and a global courier agent network spanning 200+ countries. Pricing is quote-based and customized per client, with multi-year contracts and an emphasis on competitive rates combined with broad service coverage.
