The Caroz transport management system or shipper TMS is a flexible, comprehensive and forward-thinking software solution. Use it to orchestrate your logistics, make decisions differently, and create measurable efficiency in total cost to serve.
Caroz, THE control tower is a 4PL control tower solution that leverages the same powerful IT used in our TMS offering while coupling this to a full-service concept. In other words, our logistical experts manage your supply chain remotely, so you enjoy seamless and worry-free transport management.
Logistics companies already use IT to optimise order picking, improve load building and to organise groupage, route planning, and dispatch. Their transport flows. But this is just the start. Next-generation digital logistics platforms are unleashing a revolution in supply chain management and logistics business processes. Like its aviation namesake, the 4PL control tower is helping to improve global logistics, in this case ensuring that each pallet, container, and product follows its best path to the customer.
Whether we’re talking about other companies or consumers, people increasingly see sophisticated global logistics services as a valuable selling point. They want faster, on time, transparent tracking, and even white-glove service. As an experienced 4PL company, Caroz, can help you turn your international supply chain into a differentiated customer experience. Plus we can help you to improve your operations, become more agile, increase on-time delivery, and reduce costs.
Work with Caroz and you can expect to see better supply chain performance and significant operating improvements. Using our 4PL knowhow to build an agile supply chain, we can help you to respond faster and more smoothly to changing market needs and to withstand supply chain disruption. We can help you to make your global logistics more sustainable and to improve your management control over it. We start by putting you at the heart of what we do.
Rudy Claessens launched Caroz as a traditional freight forwarder in 2000. But his dream was to build a 4PL company that would stand out in the market. In 2010, Caroz took its first steps into control tower solutions and a game-changing model in the transport management world. Since then, Caroz has added logistics management services and solutions, more and bigger clients, expanded into new countries and further developed the 4PL service concept. Today we are working towards being recognised as the world’s #1 control tower specialist and supplier of leading shipper TMS solutions.
As one of the biggest drivers of the global economy, companies in China and global organisations with operations in China have special needs, needs that Caroz, as an independent 4PL service provider is ideally placed to serve. Our centres of excellence in China and Hong Kong are located and designed to provide a seamless integration with your business requirements, while our personal approach and engagement make us your ideal partner for loyalty, reliability, honesty, and transparency.

The ocean freight industry is at a pivotal moment. Climate policies are reshaping operations, with mid-term measures from the IMO and the EU ETS driving sustainability. Yet, 2024 is also one of the most profitable years in container shipping history, showcasing a delicate balance between green investments and financial performance. Meanwhile, the return of HMM to the Transatlantic trade adds a layer of complexity as alliances shift.
The logistics landscape is facing significant shifts, from stricter EU regulations and rising fuel costs to global supply chain disruptions. These changes bring both challenges and opportunities. Dive into our latest market update to explore key developments and how they may impact your business.
