What Ostgota Transport & Bemanning Ab does

Östgöta Transport & Bemanning AB, operating as Östgötatransport, is a privately held Swedish transport and driver-staffing company headquartered at Koppargatan 36 in Norrköping, Sweden. Founded by Noor Madjed, who started as a solo driver, the company has grown into a multi-truck regional operator; Fredrik Smedberg joined as co-owner in June 2022 to lead logistics and fleet, and Katarina Görlitz Madjed manages administration and driving/rest-time compliance. The business is bootstrapped and owner-operated, with no disclosed institutional investors or parent entity.

The company sells five core transport and staffing services: Fjärrtransporter (long-haul freight), Distribution (regional/last-mile), Kyl & Frystransporter (refrigerated and frozen), Expressfrakt (time-critical shipments), and Bemanning (CE-licensed driver staffing for fixed and ad-hoc assignments). In September 2025 it added Mobil Verkstad, a mobile workshop service built into a newly acquired trailer, extending the offering into vehicle maintenance. The underlying technology stack is operations-oriented — fleet management, a mobile workshop capability, and the third-party MyTranspa time-reporting tool — with no documented software platform, AI/ML features, or proprietary digital products. Revenue is generated via B2B transaction fees on transport assignments and professional services fees on staffing placements, with quote-based, per-contract pricing that is not publicly disclosed.

Östgötatransport serves a horizontal mix of Swedish enterprises and mid-market customers concentrated in the Östergötland region (Norrköping, Linköping) and extending across southern Sweden to Jönköping, Motala, Skara, and the west coast. The customer book includes PostNord (24/7 transport in southern Sweden, the core anchor account), logistics and distribution names such as EMS Transport, Smålands logistik, and EB Road Cargo, retail loading accounts (Rusta, Beijer Norrköping), healthcare laundry transport for hospitals in Linköping, Jönköping, and Motala, and office supplies distribution for Alloffice. The website also displays DHL, DSV, Frigo, PostNord, and EA logos, indicating recognized brands in the broader customer ecosystem. The operating fleet comprises Mercedes Actros (including a 2853), MAN TGX 26.510 units, and Volvo FH 500 vehicles, with additional acquisitions in 2025, and marketing is conducted primarily through the company website and organic social channels (Facebook, LinkedIn).

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Uniflex Sverige AB: Nordic staffing firm with a dedicated transport and logistics vertical supplying drivers and warehouse staff. Directly comparable to Östgöta's Bemanning service line in customer profile and contract model.
• Sandahls Transport & Logistik AB: Swedish regional transport and logistics company operating trucks across Sweden. Comparable to Östgöta Transport in scale, regional orientation, and B2B freight focus, though without the explicit driver-staffing arm.

Broad incumbents

• Bring (Posten Bring AS) Sweden: Nordic logistics provider offering road freight, parcel, and cold-chain services across Sweden and the Nordics. Comparable on refrigerated transport and broad regional distribution.
• DB Schenker (Schenker AB): European land transport and contract logistics incumbent with full Sweden coverage. Comparable to Östgöta on long-haul freight, distribution, and contract-based customer relationships with enterprise shippers.
• Adecco Sweden: Global staffing group with a Swedish blue-collar vertical that includes driver placements. Comparable to Östgöta's Bemanning business on customer base and contract structure, though at much larger scale.
• PostNord AB: Nordic postal and logistics group that is both Östgöta's largest disclosed customer and an operator of its own transport network. Comparable as a buyer of regional haulage capacity and as a competing service provider.
• ManpowerGroup Sverige: Large multinational staffing firm with operations in Sweden supplying transport, logistics, and industrial workers. Comparable on the driver-staffing side of Östgöta's offering.
• DSV A/S (DSV Road, Sweden): Global freight forwarder and road haulier with major Swedish operations across long-haul, distribution, and cold-chain. Represents the scaled incumbent against which a regional operator like Östgöta competes for enterprise contracts.
• DHL Freight (Sweden): One of Europe's largest road freight networks with significant Sweden operations, including groupage and express freight. Overlaps directly with Östgöta's fjärrtransporter and expressfrakt offerings.

Regional players

• MTA Mälardalens Transport AB: Swedish regional trucking company operating in central Sweden. Comparable in fleet size and B2B regional freight positioning, though focused on a different geography than Östgöta's Östergötland base.
