March Transporte

What March Transporte does

March Transporte is a German logistics and freight forwarding company headquartered in Rheinbach-Oberdrees near the A61 motorway, offering an integrated service portfolio spanning road transport, warehousing, and specialized tank container logistics. The company operates a fleet of 25 GPS-monitored trucks — including Volvo FH LNG vehicles, Ford and Renault units — equipped with refrigerated, box, curtainside trailers and 15 tank container chassis, serving industrial and manufacturing customers across Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, and Denmark. Core offerings include cold chain transport, dry goods and industrial cargo haulage, ADR-certified gas and liquid tank container logistics, warehousing with inventory management and commissioning, sea container loading/unloading, and just-in-time delivery.

The company's technology stack centers on the SPEDION telematics platform, which provides real-time GPS vehicle tracking, direct order transmission to drivers, and digital delivery note management with traffic-aware navigation. Through a partnership with SNIPTEC, March Transporte also offers the sventronic performance optimization system, which enhances torque and fuel efficiency without mechanical or electronic vehicle modification. Sustainability is a stated differentiator: the firm operates BioLNG-powered Volvo trucks (30% lower emissions than Euro6), uses Neste MY Renewable Diesel for conventional vehicles, and holds a Lichtblick climate protection certificate.

Commercially, March Transporte runs a sales-led B2B model with quote-based pricing tailored to distance, cargo type, volume, and service level. Customer acquisition occurs through direct outreach via phone, email, and website contact forms, supplemented by Facebook presence and Emarsys-driven newsletters. The legal entity is structured as MARCH Transporte GmbH & Co. KG, with Marco March as Managing Director and Alexandra March overseeing Accounting and HR, indicating family-led ownership. In 2025 the company became part of the NexDash Gruppe holding structure.
