Interesting interview on the LogisticsMatter blog, with two Dutch entrepreneurs that aim to put car and van drivers in contact with small-volume shippers who need local deliveries around the Netherlands. Sjipit is Dutch for “ship it”, and the company is developing an app for providers and customers to be launched in the final quarter of the year. “So many vans and trucks are driving around with room to spare. Why not give them the option to make some money with the empty space? They will increase their efficiency as well as lower their impact on the environment.”
