What Martes, S.r.o. does

Martes, s.r.o. is a Slovak enterprise software company founded in 1995 and headquartered in Žilina, Slovakia, that develops, implements, and operates information systems for logistics and postal service providers. The firm is structured as a private limited liability company (s.r.o.) under Slovak law and operates as part of the MARTES SPECURE INTERNATIONAL group, alongside Specure GmbH, with shared centralized functions such as data backup and information-systems support delivered within the European Economic Area. The company employs 11–50 staff and serves a narrow vertical — primarily national postal operators and enterprise logistics companies — through a direct enterprise sales motion with quote-based pricing. Its primary disclosed customer since 2005 is Slovenská pošta, a.s. (Slovak Post), a state-owned national postal operator.

The product portfolio is built around three tightly integrated modules. LOGIS is the core enterprise logistics information system that processes and records over 20 million shipments per year, deployed across 1,000+ user workstations and 3,000+ user accounts in Slovakia under a high-availability architecture. LoNET adds logistics-network management with dynamic route planning and optimization, including automated notifications designed to prevent overload of vehicle fleets or processing nodes. LoREP provides centralized operational and economic reporting for service-quality evaluation and decision support. The underlying technology stack spans .NET, Java, Delphi, Oracle, PostgreSQL, JavaScript, PHP, and Flutter, indicating a mixed legacy-modern enterprise environment rather than a greenfield cloud-native platform. Service offerings extend to information-system design, consulting, firmware programming, system implementation, and systems integration. The firm holds ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environmental), and ISO 27001 (information security) certifications, supporting its eligibility for regulated public-sector and enterprise procurements.
