The MENAP Road Freight market is a significant one \u2013 worth $50 billion, and Trella\u2019s fund raise proceeds are being invested in tech capacity and product development to fuel growth, accelerate the Company\u2019s journey to reducing the costs of moving goods, and continue being the regional market leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trella growth strategy remains focused on its GCC expansion plan. This latest market entry paves the way for a new multi-city expansion, which will increasingly connect multiple trucking routes \u2013 representing a <em>next frontier<\/em> in efficiency of trucking in the region \u2013 and is consistent with Trella\u2019s mission to <em>reinvent trucking<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Peter May, Head of Global Expansion at Trella, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cTrella\u2019s expansion into the UAE is a huge milestone for the company. Logistics competency is directly linked to economic growth meaning our platform\u2019s ability to bring more transparent, reliable and efficient trucking more widely across the GCC &#8211; is excellent for the region and our own growth.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThe MENAP freight market is a significant one, and we are trusted and used by some of the world\u2019s most recognisable brands. Today\u2019s launch in the UAE is just the start of our wider roll-out across more cities and countries in the GCC.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trella disrupts and reshapes the freight industry by connecting shippers directly to carriers, with significant positives for both. The platform solves industry challenges including shippers suffering unreliability, inefficiency via fragmented truck ownership, high price points and low transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shippers can book directly and access a transparent pricing structure. Shipments can be tracked in real-time, and receive analytics on transportation performance. Improved load utilization also helps reduce cost. For truck drivers, Trella improves efficiency as freight is moved intelligently \u2013 which boosts carriers\u2019 earnings and creates job opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trella has 350+ shipper partners including blue-chip brands such as: Coca-Cola, Maersk, Mondi, Henkel, Orascom and Cemex. It also has 15,000+ carrier partners.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trella, the fastest growing digital freight marketplace in MENAP, announces the expansion of its operations into the United Arab Emirates.
