What Sporvice does

Sporvice AS is a private Norwegian logistics company headquartered in Nesttun, Bergen, operating across six integrated service lines: Lokal Distribusjon (fixed-route local distribution in Bergen and surrounding areas using electric vehicles and HVO100), Ekspresslevering (24/7 time-critical express delivery locally, nationally, and internationally via partners), Tollager (a Tolletaten-approved customs-bonded warehouse enabling deferred duty payment on imported goods), Godslogistikk (full freight handling including warehousing, receiving, packing, distribution and transport), Bagasjetransport fra Bergen Lufthavn (specialized airport baggage and special-cargo handling at Bergen Airport for airlines such as Widerøe and ground handler WGH), and Line Item Check (quality control and verification of inbound goods including product, quantity, weight, and price terms).

The company serves a mix of regional Bergen SMBs, importers needing customs-bonded storage, airlines and ground handlers at Bergen Airport, and wholesale/industrial customers (Solar, Tess, Onninen, Instabox). It also maintains reciprocal GTM and capacity partnerships with PorterBuddy, ColliCare, GAC, ByPost, and Grønn Jobb. The operating model is sales-led and quote-based: customers contact Sporvice directly by phone (55 25 75 00) or email ([email protected]), and existing clients access a customer portal (sporvice.driftcentral.net) for ongoing logistics operations. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and billing is pay-as-you-go per engagement.

Sporvice is a family-operated Norwegian private limited company (Aksjeselskap) led by the Osberg family, with no disclosed external investment, parent company, or subsidiaries. The firm claims over 30 years of combined experience in freight forwarding, dangerous goods, air/car/boat transport, and 3PL. The technology stack is conventional (third-party transport management system, Wix-based website, no disclosed proprietary platform, API, or AI capabilities), with environmental sustainability positioning through electric vehicles and HVO100 renewable diesel.
