Optimising the relationship between Shippers and their Carriers
Loadar is an online transport management platform which makes working with your trusted Carriers easier and more cost efficient. Shippers post loads, from single pallets to multi load contracts, and Carriers bid on the loads in an open and transparent way.
Shippers benefit from open competition for their loads, control of who carries their loads and ability to track their loads.
Carriers have much improved capability to increase utilisation and negate the need for sub-contracting by having a direct link to the paying Shipper.

Pricing Model
In the Loadar marketplace, the Shipper determines the price by setting both the “secure it now” low price for the load and also the “maximum” price they are prepared to pay for the load. The Carrier opts to either immediately close the deal by accepting the “secure it now” price or placing a bid below the “maximum” price. Shippers already on board are achieving 8% savings.
