What transferd does

Transferd AS is a Norwegian road transport and logistics company headquartered in Førde, with branch offices in Kaupanger and Stryn. The company operates as a subsidiary within the Firda Billag group and provides three integrated service lines: langtransport (long-distance haulage with nationwide coverage and temperature-controlled equipment), distribusjon (a regional distribution network running from Kristiansund in the north to Bergen in the south, covering all of Sogn og Fjordane), and logistikktenester (a suite of value-added services including pick warehouse, goods warehouse, packing and packaging, relabeling, third-party logistics, and forklift services up to 12 tons). Customers contact the company by phone or booking email at branch offices for transport assignments, making the go-to-market sales-led and relationship-driven. Transferd is a co-owner in Vest Dyretransport AS, extending reach into specialized animal transport, and participates in Klimapartner Vestland via its parent for green transport initiatives.

The company's underlying technology stack is conventional logistics infrastructure centered on a third-party Timpex-based cargo tracking system that allows customers to trace shipments in real time via the Transportsidene.no portal. There is no proprietary software platform, no public API, and no app. Revenue is transaction/freight-based, with pricing tied to SSB's cost index for goods and truck transport; a 3.7% annual adjustment took effect 01.01.2026, and energy costs are passed through as a separate invoice line item, with a 5.7% diesel supplement for June. International and broader national coverage is delivered via the Schenker network acting as a channel partner.

Transferd reported NOK 249.9 million in revenue for 2025 with approximately 120 employees, implying revenue per employee around NOK 2.08 million. The company holds ISO-14001 environmental certification, complies with the Norwegian Transparency Act, and operates as a privately held Aksjeselskap with no venture or private equity funding disclosed. Customer concentration appears distributed across a horizontal segment of Norwegian businesses requiring local, regional, national, and international freight services, with no anchor accounts named in the source material.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Nor-Cargo: Nor-Cargo is a Norwegian road freight and groupage transport operator covering nationwide routes — a direct peer to Transferd's long-distance and distribution services in the Norwegian market.
• Linjegods (PostNord): Linjegods, part of PostNord, operates groupage and part-load road freight across Norway — closely comparable to Transferd's distribution and linehaul services on the same Norwegian road network.

Broad incumbents

• DSV (DSV Road): DSV is a global transport and logistics incumbent with significant road freight operations across the Nordics; following the DB Schenker acquisition it is also Transferd's network partner, making it both a competitor and counterparty.
• Bring Logistics (Posten Bring): Bring Logistics is the parcel, freight, and warehousing arm of Posten Norge, offering nationwide distribution and 3PL — a broader incumbent competing with Transferd in distribution and logistics services.
• DB Schenker (Norway): DB Schenker operates global freight forwarding and contract logistics; it is Transferd's explicit channel partner for international and broader national transport, making it both a system partner and a broad market incumbent.
• Kuehne+Nagel: Kuehne+Nagel is a global freight forwarder with road, air, and sea capabilities — a broader incumbent that competes for the same Norwegian shipper contracts Transferd serves through Schenker and direct.
• DHL Freight: DHL Freight operates pan-European road freight networks and competes with regional Norwegian hauliers for domestic and cross-border transport contracts from major shippers.
• Toll Group: Toll Group is an Asia-Pacific headquartered global logistics provider with road freight and contract logistics — a broader incumbent competing for multi-country shipper accounts in the same European/Nordic corridor.

Regional players

• Girteka Logistics: Girteka is one of Europe's largest asset-based road hauliers, primarily cross-border; comparable in service mix to Transferd's long-distance trucking, though it operates at much larger scale and different European lanes.

Others

• Helthjem / PostNord (Norway): PostNord's Norwegian parcel and e-commerce delivery network is an adjacent last-mile operator; relevant as an ecosystem participant in the same Norwegian distribution market where Transferd handles B2B freight.
