Welchen Nutzen bringt Ihre Lösung für die Umwelt?

How does your solution benefit the environment?

Every fourth truck on Swiss roads is empty. The Pickwings business model is designed to use the empty kilometres of transport companies to enable the CO2-optimised shipment of goods by road.

Since 2020, Pickwings has been awarding the “Green Transport Label” to companies that have made a significant contribution to reducing CO2 emissions and empty kilometres on Swiss roads by placing their transport orders. With every transport order, Pickwings customers can also donate a tree seedling of their choice for one franc.

How do you manage to survive in the market?

More and more companies are turning to contemporary, digital options for the transport of goods. Pickwings creates added value for all participants in the supply chain and sets new aspects for sustainable road transport. Through digitalised processes and real-time connection to the transport market, goods shippers save up to 20% freight costs and 50% administration. Transport companies benefit from increased utilisation and a reduction in empty kilometres as well as from the free digitalisation of their fleet on a public marketplace.
