For example, the transport industry is often multi-segmented and the market is dominated by small fleets, often of less than six trucks. The industry also suffers from a lack of technology integration as certain market players resist change.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The situation in Turkey reflects the problems in the US markets to some extent and so the possibilities are equally valid. <strong>TIRPORT,<\/strong> an Istanbul-based startup, has managed to see the potential in the market and believes that it can bring innovative features beyond its time to the system that needs urgent renewal in the sector.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TIRPORT<\/strong> business development specialist <strong>Burak \u00c7a\u011flar<\/strong> said of this platform, \u201c <strong>TIRPORT<\/strong> provides cargo carriers and cargo carriers the opportunity to meet and match on a real-time and location-based digital platform. The services offered by our platform are not limited to this; We enable companies to manage their logistics transportation processes with instant monitoring and reporting opportunities.\u201d speaks as.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">92% of logistics operations in Turkey are carried out by road transport; 2 thousand logistics companies and 900 thousand trucks take an active role in transportation every day. Regarding the subject, <strong>TIRPORT<\/strong> business development manager <strong>Alemdar Kad\u0131o\u011flu said<\/strong> , \u201c9 out of every 10 trucks that these transportations are made belong to individuals. This causes many trucks to carry out transport without finding a return load. First of all, we wanted to solve this problem. Those who carry loads with <strong>TIRPORT<\/strong> can easily find a return load before they complete their transportation.\u201d he speaks.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides being a digital freight market, <strong>TIRPORT<\/strong> enables companies to track their loads between loading and unloading points. In addition, <strong>TIRPORT<\/strong> noticed that many companies and truck drivers complain about losing shipping documents, which is a vital part of the transportation process. Loss of documents can have negative consequences, as the industry operates with a traditional concept.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company&#8217;s key customer expert Ersin Demircio\u011flu talks about a similar situation they faced; \u201cThere was a truck driver that we met, who made his transportation but lost his invoice. If the delivery document is lost in Turkey, the relevant payments are not made. However, the transport documents, which are the reference of the transport process, need to be photographed and uploaded to our platform. Since the trucker used our platform and uploaded an image of the invoice, he used TIRPORT as evidence to get his payment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TIRPORT<\/strong> is an organization that carried out service development and market verification studies before it started operating. Regarding the situation in the market, <strong>Alemdar Kad\u0131o\u011flu<\/strong> said, \u201cWe are the first of our kind in the Turkish market. Although there are several platforms operating in a similar way, they do not offer ERP services because they are primarily logistics companies.\u201d He speaks as<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the startup has emerged as a digital transportation market, it has realized that logistics companies need ERP solutions that can meet their own needs. <strong>Alemdar Kad\u0131o\u011flu<\/strong> said, \u201cLarge companies can use SAP or Oracle, but small companies cannot. Because these softwares are not flexible enough. However, we can always provide improvements that fit the needs of companies. That way we become more attractive.\u201d He is telling.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TIRPORT,<\/strong> which is in operation today with approximately 30 companies and a thousand truck drivers, continues to consolidate itself. It is aimed to bring all 1.5 million trucks in Turkey to this system.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Source:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freightwaves.com\/news\/tirport-digital-freight-brokerage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FreightWaves<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Freight markets have similar characteristics all over the world, including the USA.
