NCT Group has partnered with CargoON to accelerate the digitalization of its transport operations across Europe. The collaboration will support more efficient freight execution, improved carrier communication, and greater visibility through automation and centralized transport management.

In 2026, European road freight will continue to operate in an environment where structural cost pressure remains intense. Though increasingly it is the labour, tolling, regulatory compliance and decarbonisation investments that define transport budgets and put pressure on the margins. But while fuel prices were fairly stable in recent quarters, the latest conflict in the Middle East could brutally remind carriers that fuel still makes up around 40% of their costs.

While the ongoing conflict in Iran is geographically concentrated in the Middle East, its effects are rippling across Europe’s logistics and transport networks. Rising oil and gas prices, disruptions to maritime routes, and delays in air freight are driving up operational costs and creating more unpredictability for road carriers in already unpredictable times. For European hauliers already operating on thin margins, the combination of higher fuel costs, fluctuating freight volumes, and port congestion is intensifying pressures and threatening profitability, forcing companies to rethink supply chains and adopt more resilient strategies.

2026 will bring one of the most significant regulatory shifts for European road transport in years. New rules covering ADR enforcement, tachographs in vans, road tolls, environmental zones, and wage requirements will directly affect operating costs, compliance obligations, and daily transport planning. Below, we break down the key changes, timelines, and their practical impact on carriers, shippers, and freight forwarders.

While indeed European logistics and transportation operations and revenues are generated in the Western part of the continent, neglecting the Central and Eastern parts of the continent means giving up on big money and even bigger prospects.

A strategic respnose to data fragmentation in supply chains API and EDI integrations are an important step in the digitization of logistics, but on a European scale they are no longer sufficient to ensure full information exchange in a distributed transport ecosystem. The next stage is the transition to data sharing models – so-called Data Spaces, which allow market participants to exchange information on standardized principles while maintaining control over their own data.

When connectivity meets capacity: a new strategic alliance announced to offer the road transport sector a more efficient and connected future.

The recently proposed draft of Italy’s Infrastructure Decree introduces a series of measures set to revolutionize the country’s road transport sector.

We’re excited to announce that CargoON will be participating in the Transport Logistic Fair in Munich from June 2nd to 5th, one of the world’s leading trade shows for logistics, mobility, IT, and supply chain management. You’ll find us at Hall B1, Stand 327/428, where we’ll be showcasing how our end-to-end carrier connectivity platform is transforming the future of freight logistics.

Europe’s logistics leaders gathered in Wrocław for the The European Freight and Logistics Leaders' Forum (F&L), where change, innovation, and collaboration took center stage. As a proud partner, Trans.eu Group, along with CargoON, played an active role in shaping the conversation around digital transformation, resilience, and the evolving role of the CEE region in European logistics.

We are excited to announce a strategic collaboration between GMP+ International, the global leader in feed safety and sustainability certification, and Trans.eu, the operator of an advanced transport management platform.

The transportation of bulk goods plays a crucial role in supply chains across industries such as agriculture, construction, and energy. Yet, the sector still faces many challenges—rising costs, regulatory changes, and the ongoing need for greater efficiency. To address these issues and create a space for meaningful discussions, the first edition of the Gdańsk Bulk Commodities Transport Exchange 2025 is set to take place on March 19–20, 2025, at the prestigious Sheraton Hotel Conference Center in Sopot, Poland.

The Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2025 report from the World Economic Forum highlights the increasing complexity of cyberspace and its impact on supply chain management. We analyze these challenges and the compliance with regulations such as the NIS2 directive, the use of the ISO 27001 standard, and the importance of working in digital environments that ensure the security of highly sensitive data handled by supply chains. At CargoON, we contribute with our new Visibility Monitoring functionality, which enables real-time shipment tracking, facilitating early anomaly detection and minimizing risks in logistics operations and transportation.
