What Reder Transporte does

Reder Transporte KG is a Hörsching, Austria-based freight transport and logistics company founded in 1902, operating continuously for over 122 years as one of the established carriers in Central Europe. The company runs a diversified fleet of 394 specialized vehicles spanning tarpaulin semi-trailers, food-grade tank vehicles, milk collection trucks, distribution vehicles, truck-mounted cranes, tipper/dump trucks, swap-body and multi-swapper configurations, and refrigerated units. These assets support ten core service lines: warehouse logistics (Lagerlogistik), consulting (Beratung), industrial transport (Werkverkehr), milk collection logistics (Milchsammellogistik), crane services (Krandienstleistungen), tipper transports (Kippertransporte), scheduled line transport (Linienverkehr), fixed charter (Fixchartereinsatz), general cargo (Ladungsverkehr), and ADR-certified dangerous goods transport (Gefahrguttransporte).

The company is structured as a private limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft / KG) under Austrian commercial law and operates within the Redergroup corporate umbrella alongside sister companies TAZYTRANS Logistik and ERRO Spedition. Beyond transport services, Reder operates two vertically-integrated operational assets: a licensed in-house truck workshop (KFZ-Fachwerkstätte) providing two-shift maintenance, §57a inspections, tachograph testing, and 24/7 emergency service; and a certified driver academy (Fahrerakademie) operating since 2010 under §13 GWB-Verordnung, delivering five continuing-education modules with 5,600 annual training hours. With 332 employees across seven Central European locations and a quote-based, sales-led GTM targeting B2B customers requiring customized solutions for food, dairy, hazardous materials, and bulk goods, the company pursues a relationship-driven model emphasizing tailored service over standardized offering.

Broad incumbents

• DB Schenker: European land, air, and ocean freight incumbent with deep Central European road freight operations. Direct overlap with Reder's road transport and contract logistics offerings, but at national/international scale.
• Kühne+Nagel: Global logistics incumbent with road, sea, air, and contract logistics. Overlaps with Reder on European road freight and contract logistics, but at vastly larger scale and global footprint.
• DSV: Global transport and logistics company with strong European road freight and solutions divisions. Overlaps with Reder on truck transport and contract logistics, but operates at multi-continent scale.
• DACHSER: Large German-headquartered logistics incumbent with European road freight, warehousing, and air/sea forwarding. Comparable service portfolio (road freight, contract logistics) but at much greater scale and broader geographic reach than Reder.

Direct peers

• Lagermax Lagerhaus und Speditions-AG: Austrian logistics group combining warehousing, distribution, and specialized transport (including automotive and bulk). Comparable on regional focus and multi-modal service mix, though Lagermax tilts more toward contract logistics.
• Gebrüder Weiss: Austrian-headquartered, family-owned full-service logistics provider offering road, air, and sea freight plus warehousing. Highly comparable on ownership profile (private, Austrian), service breadth, and century-plus heritage.
• LKW Walter: Austrian full-truckload road-haul specialist with a comparable asset-light and contract-driven model serving European shippers. Closely comparable to Reder on customer type, geographic focus (Central Europe), and core product (general cargo truckload transport).
• Spedition Wildenhofer: Austrian family-owned transport and logistics company specializing in tanker and bulk transport. Closely comparable on private Austrian ownership, hazmat/tanker capability, and similar fleet scale.
• Quehenberger Logistics: Austrian contract logistics and transport specialist with fleet, warehousing, and industry-specific solutions. Comparable in geography, customer base, and mix of contract transport plus value-added logistics.

Regional players

• Cargo-Partner: Austrian-origin international freight forwarder and logistics provider. Comparable on Austrian roots and Central European strength, but with a heavier forwarding/forwarder mix and global reach rather than owned-fleet trucking.
