What Transporte y Logistica Nacional does

Transporte y Logistica Nacional (TLN) is a privately held Chilean B2B logistics provider founded in 2012 and headquartered at Camino Lo Echevers 400 in Quilicura, Santiago. The company delivers last-mile distribution, third-party warehousing, and e-commerce fulfillment services to enterprise and mid-market clients across Chile, with national coverage from Arica to Punta Arenas and a dense service network in the Santiago Metropolitan Region. Its service portfolio spans under-2-hour, same-day, next-day, and standard delivery tiers, alongside cash collection, vending machine restocking, and value-added services such as packaging, repackaging, promotional kit assembly, and product labeling.

TLN's operations are built on a proprietary technology stack comprising the Global Tracking System (GTS) for order and shipment tracking with proof-of-delivery documentation, and a Warehouse Management System (WMS) for real-time inventory visibility and remote warehouse control. The platform integrates natively with major e-commerce systems (PrestaShop, WixStore, Magento, OpenCart) and offers direct API connectivity plus a Marketplace Integration (IMP) module for automated order ingestion. The company sells through a B2B sales-led motion targeting enterprise and mid-market accounts, with a self-serve GTS portal serving SMB and individual e-commerce sellers. Revenue is generated through per-shipment delivery fees, warehouse subscriptions billed by square meter, e-commerce platform access fees, value-added service charges, and optional shipment insurance at 0.6% of declared value.

TLN was founded as the distribution and cash collection partner for Coca-Cola Andina, becoming the beverage company's largest operator in the Santiago Metropolitan Region by 2016. Since then, the client base has broadened across energy and lubricants (TotalEnergies, Belray), industrial distribution (Koslan, Comulsa Chile), and industrial safety (Underfire), with the company positioning itself as a flexible, non-prescriptive strategic logistics partner rather than a standardized service provider.
