ATC Cargo

What ATC Cargo does

ATC Cargo S.A. is a Polish freight forwarding and logistics operator headquartered in Gdynia and listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange's NewConnect alternative trading system (symbol wse:ATA). Founded in 2006 with 101–250 employees, the company provides an integrated, multi-modal service portfolio spanning ocean freight (FCL/LCL, bulk, conventional, oversized), road freight (FTL, LTL, ADR/hazardous, oversized across Europe), air freight (typically under four days transit, with 24-hour express and On Board Courier options), intermodal transport (rail-road-sea, including China-to-Europe corridors, claiming up to 70% CO2 reduction versus road), warehouse services (Temporary Storage and Customs Warehouse adjacent to the Baltic Hub/DCT Gdańsk terminal), and full customs agency services supported by AEO status.

The company's underlying technology centres on a proprietary Extranet platform that provides customers with order management, real-time container tracking, and an interactive cargo position map covering loading, transshipment, and unloading. ATC Cargo's regulatory and certification footprint — ISO 9001:2015, NATO N-Cage, WSK (Internal Control System), and AEO — qualifies it for handling military, dual-use, and customs-sensitive cargo in addition to commercial freight. It is also GDPR-compliant and holds EU Pobrexit Adjustment Reserve co-financing for developing photovoltaic-industry logistics.

ATC Cargo's business model is a quote-based, transaction-fee freight forwarding model with additional managed-service revenue from customs clearance, warehousing, and value-added services (consolidation, palletizing, wrapping, banding, cargo insurance). Distribution is sales-led through direct enterprise and mid-market account management, supported by ten regional branch offices across Poland (Gdynia HQ, Gdańsk, Szczecin, Poznań, Zielona Góra, Wrocław, Radomsko, Jasionka, Warsaw, Łódź) and a global partner/agent network covering Europe, Asia, North America, South America, Africa, and Australia. Customer segments include e-commerce, manufacturing/industry, retail (anchor relationships with JYSK since 2010, CCC since 2012, Castorama, HOMLA), electronics/technology (Samsung), food, military/defence, and emerging photovoltaics. Marketing and customer acquisition are conducted through the company website, blog, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and X (Twitter), supplemented by direct sales outreach ([email protected]). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is determined per shipment by cargo type, weight, volume, route, service level, and special handling requirements.
