Loadar builds an advanced freight procurement and management platform that automates procurement workflows, centralizes carrier relationships, and provides real-time insight into the whereabouts of freight. The product integrates with most major enterprise systems and is already live with clients, including blue-chip sustainable packaging providers. Founder and CEO Ciaran Doherty brings logistics and operations experience from Translink and Huhtamaki. Loadar projects users can reduce transport costs by about 15% and notes that shipping logistics typically cost 7–8% of a shipper's revenue. The platform also targets reductions in empty-leg journeys and associated carbon footprint alongside cost savings. The company plans to use the new funding to expand into the US and to double its team over the next 12 months.
