Smart Trailer Solutions

What Smart Trailer Solutions does

Smart Trailer Solutions B.V. is a Dutch private limited company founded in 2022 and headquartered in Vaartwijk 7, 4571 SV Axel, Zeeland, Netherlands, operating with a small team of approximately seven employees. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kraker Trailers, a Dutch manufacturer that has focused exclusively on moving floor trailers since 1989 and is described in company materials as the leading European specialist in the segment. Smart Trailer Solutions functions as the dedicated sales, rental, and leasing arm for the parent's K-Force product line, providing commercial coverage across the Benelux region with four named, territory-aligned regional sales representatives covering distinct Dutch provinces and Belgium.

The product portfolio centers on the Kraker K-Force line of moving floor trailers (schuifvloertrailers / walking floor trailers), available in three variants: standard K-Force for multifunctional bulk, palletized, and general cargo transport; K-Force Agri optimized for agricultural products; and K-Force Side Doors (SD) equipped for long indivisible cargo. Underlying technology is the manufacturer's moving floor system, characterized in company materials as durable, safe, efficient, and operationally reliable. Revenue mechanics span three streams: new trailer sales from stock (carrying a unique 5-year Kraker guarantee), nearly-new and used trailer sales, and short-term rental (one-month minimum) and leasing arrangements, with quote-based pricing applied across all streams and no publicly disclosed price list. Applications served include agricultural products, recycling materials, waste, biomass, and general cargo for transport and logistics operators, agricultural businesses, and waste management/recycling firms.

Go-to-market is sales-led, combining direct field representatives, an inside-sales quote-request workflow, and a depot partner network (K&D Truck & Trailer Service in Beerta, Van de Krol European Trailercare in Barneveld, KTTC in Nisse, plus the Axel headquarters) for customer pickup and return. Marketing combines paid acquisition via Google Ads, Meta, and LinkedIn with organic presence on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram, plus WhatsApp Business as a direct contact channel and Leadfeeder for B2B visitor identification. The website is published in Dutch, English, and German. No external funding, no institutional investors, no public listing, and no disclosed revenue figure are present in the input; legal entity is Smart Trailer Solutions B.V. (KvK 83946586), privately held and vertically integrated as a commercial extension of the parent manufacturer.

Comparable in serving hauliers across Europe and offering multi-channel trailer procurement, though diversified well beyond moving floor trailers.

Overlaps with Smart Trailer Solutions on trailer sales, leasing, and fleet services, and competes indirectly for the same haulier customers, though its portfolio is broader than just moving floor trailers.
