Berlin-based digital road freight company sennder has secured €228 million in new financing to support its next phase of growth across Europe. The funding package combines €155 million in financing facilities and €73 million in additional equity investment from existing shareholders.
According to a company press release, the equity investment was led by Scania and Poste Italiane and helped support the acquisition and integration of C.H. Robinson’s European Surface Transportation business. The funding will also support the continued expansion of sennder’s technology platform, sennOS, as well as new AI-powered services for shippers, carriers and freight forwarders.
The announcement follows sennder’s recent profitability milestone. The company said it is now IFRS EBITDA positive on an unadjusted monthly basis, expects full-year IFRS EBITDA profitability in 2026 and is on track to reach €1 billion in annual revenue this year.
The financing package includes a €100 million non-recourse factoring line from Coface, a €40 million facility from the European Investment Bank (EIB) and a €15 million Supply Chain Finance programme with cflox and Deutsche Bank. According to the company, these facilities support working capital needs while allowing more equity capital to be invested in growth, technology and AI capabilities.
The company also highlighted benefits for its network of more than 40,000 carriers. Through the supply chain finance programme, carriers can receive payments earlier while working with a financially strengthened partner.
sennder sees the funding as an important step toward further scaling its digital freight platform and expanding its presence in the European road freight market.
