TDB Transporte

What TDB Transporte does

TDB Transporte (legal name Tdsa Logística e Transportes Ltda., CNPJ 12.524.929/0001-07) is a Brazilian road freight carrier founded in 1987, providing less-than-truckload (carga fracionada) and full-truckload (lotação) services across São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro states through 18 physical service units. The company targets B2B shippers in verticals including fashion, apparel, textiles, footwear, cosmetics, electronics, and retail/industrial goods, with named enterprise customers such as Hering, Sestini, Saint-Gobain (Tekbond), C&C Casa e Construção, Pulvitec, Grupo NTK Confecções, IBF Ind. Brasileira de Filmes, Grupo Amade, Grupo Datalogística, and Lojas Xavier.

The technology stack consists of a recently launched customer portal (Área do Cliente) developed with Hyerdev, which supports online freight quotation, pickup scheduling, real-time cargo tracking, and delivery-deadline calculation, alongside EDI and API integration capabilities for shipper system interoperability. The portal supplements, rather than replaces, a consultative direct B2B sales motion — including WhatsApp sales contact — and a content-marketing presence across LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and a logistics blog.

TDB generates revenue through transaction-based freight fees quoted per shipment on the basis of weight, cubage, distance, and add-on services such as difficulty fees, dedicated vehicles, and scheduled appointments. Pricing is individually quoted rather than tiered publicly, billing is pay-as-you-go, and there is no disclosed external funding, M&A activity, or public listing. The company is privately held, operates exclusively in Brazil, and reports no global footprint.
