Company Information

Farm Trans knows the vulnerability of fresh and refrigerated food transport better than anyone. We therefore monitor our customers' freight from start to finish with our full-service provision; from transport to distribution and from shipping to storage.

We are a transparent organization and find input from our colleagues very important. That is why we organize a monthly driver meeting where a delegated team meets and exchanges information.

Colleagues describe Farm Trans as an organization with an informal working atmosphere where communication is number 1. For example, we have set up an internal mobile app and employee portal to keep you as a driver informed about what is going on within Farm Trans.
