A cooperation achieves more than its individual members. A cooperation creates synergy effects that benefit all those involved - both its members and their customers.

Small and medium-sized enterprises, in particular, can gain enormous advantages for themselves and their customers. The more each member contributes to the cooperation, the stronger the cooperation and the greater the benefits for each individual member.

Management consultant Karl-Gerd Jux recognized this principle at an early stage. Using his many years of experience in international logistics, he has brought small and medium-sized logistics businesses together in the Cargo in motion cooperation.

Cargo in motion is a pan-European logistics cooperation network. Its members are strong small and medium-sized companies who have a wealth of resources, competencies and experience at their disposal.

In view of the resources already available and the positive economic climate in Germany, the decision to start planning a future-oriented cooperation of like-minded small to medium-sized businesses was an easy one.

The founding meeting took place on 15th January 2011 and operations started on 1st February 2011. Right from day one, the cooperation has combined the strengths of very high-performing companies.

Cargo in motion represents the vision of a cooperation within Germany and abroad that offers a full range of part and full load services throughout its area of operation based on high-performing owner-run companies that have their own vehicle fleets and are already successful in the logistics markets.

Cargo in motion can provide a comprehensive network of logistics services throughout Germany and the rest of Europe.

One of Cargo in motion's major advantages is the optimized use of all available resources. The customer has access to much larger load capacities and well-trained drivers. This means that available capacity can be used more effectively and at lower cost.

This strategy is in line with expert forecasts of further positive trends in transportation volumes in the coming years. We also attach great importance to linking dispatchers with each other.

State-of-the-art communication methods are in place at all levels, enabling proactive customer care. The reliability of our members is a crucial factor that plays a central role within Cargo in motion.

Putting our common philosophy and strategy into practice is easy, since we work together as trusting partners - an advantage that benefits our customers, above all.

The Cargo in motion cooperation will make it possible to utilize synergy effects when purchasing services, materials and fuel. We expect to realize considerable savings in these areas.

Due to high customer expectations in the logistics industry, there is still considerable interest in membership of Cargo in motion.

A company wishing to join Cargo in motion must introduce itself to the other members of the cooperation at an information meeting. A set of predefined criteria is used to determine whether the applicant company would be a suitable member. We work together on the basis of time-honored business principles and of a charter that covers all important aspects of our cooperation.
