TIS Group

What TIS Group does

TIS Group is a Russian logistics company founded on February 11, 2002 and headquartered at str. Marshala Govorova, 35A in St. Petersburg. It specializes in the transportation of oversized and heavy cargo, with documented capability to move loads exceeding 230 tons and super-oversized equipment up to 9.56 meters wide. The company serves enterprise clients across the energy, metallurgy, petrochemical, construction, agricultural, and aerospace sectors in Russia, Kazakhstan, and other CIS regions, executing complex multi-modal transport projects for power plants, wind farms, mining and ore-processing facilities, copper smelters, and space-industry equipment.

The company's core offering is project cargo logistics, supported by an integrated portfolio of services: multimodal transportation (road, rail, sea), specialized road and rail oversized transport, loading and unloading operations, standard cargo transport, cargo insurance, and warehouse services. Underpinning the offering is a proprietary owned fleet of specialized vehicles and loading/unloading equipment, which the company cites as its primary technical differentiator and cost-efficiency advantage. The multilingual corporate website (Russian, English, German, Chinese) features a project gallery that documents flagship engagements including the Kola Wind Power Station, three wind farms in Rostov, a second wind farm in Ulyanovsk, the Artemovskaya TEC 2 thermal power project, the Bozshakol mining project in Kazakhstan, and a copper-factory construction in Kazakhstan.

TIS Group operates a project-based B2B revenue model with quote-based pricing and no publicly disclosed rates or recurring contracts. Revenue streams are professional-services and transaction-fee in nature, tied to individual project engagements. Headcount is in the 101-250 band. The company is privately held with no venture or institutional capital disclosed. In June 2020, DP World acquired a 51% stake in TIS Group's Pivdennyi Container Terminal and P&O Maritime Ukraine assets; in March 2026, TIS Group reacquired that stake, regaining full ownership of the strategic maritime terminal (analyst-stake value $84-105 million).

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• DP WorldmajorStrategic or Co-development Partner · 18 March 2026DP World sold its 51% stake in Pivdennyi Container Terminal and P&O Maritime Ukraine back to TIS Group, marking the end of a five-year partnership that began in June 2020. The transaction, which received all necessary regulatory approvals, sees TIS fully regain control of one of Ukraine's most strategically important maritime infrastructure assets. Analysts estimate the controlling stake value at $84-105 million. While DP World has not ruled out future business opportunities in Ukraine, the sale signals a portfolio rebalancing amid wartime risks and global turbulence rather than a complete exit from the country.
