History.
Freightos was founded in January 2012 by Zvi Schreiber. Schreiber has previously founded and managed other start-up companies including companies acquired by IBM and GE. The first beta customers of Freightos went live in October 2012 and the SaaS service was commercially launched in March 2013. Freightos raised initial funding from OurCrowd. Freightos is the trading name of Tradeos Limited, a Hong Kong company. Freightos is member of Airforwarders Association since January 2013 and TIACA since 2021.
In August 2016, Freightos bought Spanish startup WebCargoNet, which later was marketed at WebCargo by Freightos. A similar, India-based air cargo rate management solution, Air Freight Bazaar, was acquired by the company in 2019.
In March 2017, Freightos raised $25 million in Series B funding led by GE Ventures bringing the company's total funding to $50 million.
In April 2018, Freightos launched a daily containerized index, called the Freightos Baltic Exchange Index (FBX). This is widely used as an indicator of global container prices.
