VIALTIS and TimoCom seal partnership

Düsseldorf, 2010-08-16. On the one hand, there is VIALTIS, the European market leader in cost reduction for the transport industry. On the other hand, TimoCom, the company behind leading Europe-wide freight and vehicle exchange service TC Truck&Cargo® and TC eBid®, the European transport industry´s online tendering platform. The two companies have now entered into a partnership that brings benefits to both their customers.

Increasing efficiency, saving costs – these are values that both TimoCom and VIALTIS are committed to. The collaboration between these two service providers will enable services to be consolidated and the range offered to customers to be extended for all companies involved in transport.

Cooperation as a logical consequence
TimoCom´s tendering platforms are designed to prevent unladen journeys and to permit long-term scheduling of transports. Using the freight exchange TC Truck&Cargo® and the tender platform TC eBid® allows all companies involved in transport to effectively save time and money.
In combination with VIALTIS, there are now even more opportunities to make savings, as VIALTIS offers transport companies valuable services both for administrative processes and when on the road. These cover everything from paying road tolls and getting VAT refunds or reimbursement in advance, diesel fuel tax rebates and competitive fuel prices to booking a ferry.

Cooperation at the highest level
TimoCom Soft- und Hardware GmbH was founded in 1997 and is an IT service provider for the freight industry. TimoCom has grown from a start-up venture to an established, medium-sized company in just a few years. With a large team of international employees, TimoCom provides two European tendering platforms: the market-leading freight and vehicle exchange platform TC Truck&Cargo® and TC eBid®, the online platform for transport tenders.
VIALTIS is a service provider working for international transport companies. As a privileged partner of the IRU (International Road Transport Union), the Group has 10 offices in Europe with 6,000 customers in over 40 countries.
