Kontainers is an enterprise software company that empowers shipping brands with customer-facing execution platforms.
"Traditional Forwarders have built up networks, relationships and domain experience over a number of decades. Whereas 'Digital Freight Forwarders' have good tech, but need to raise hundreds of millions to play catch up on those three pillars all established forwarders already have. With Kontainers, the final piece of the jigsaw, any forwarder in the world can become a 'Modern Forwarder' and nullify the USP of these digital forwarders in a matter of weeks" - Graham Parker, CEO
