Pioneering Low Carbon Multimodal Transport
Zeus provides shippers with cutting-edge technology that makes multimodal freight transport effortless.
Book a meeting with us to provide you a detailed plan on how to decarbonise your supply chain transport.
Middle mile logistics presents the biggest challenge in decarbonising freight. In Europe, most middle-mile freight is moved by road on heavy goods vehicles; so the shift to greener solutions has been particularly slow. Zeus helps shippers overcome the roadblocks to sustainability by providing real multimodal transport solutions that have showed significant carbon emissions of up to 84% (versus diesel road freight).

How does Zeus’s green multimodal solution work?
Zeus helps make the transition to freight decarbonisation simple and easy.
Zeus Freight Connect offers a fully managed, low-carbon multimodal service designed for high volume, high frequency shippers across the Europe (including Turkey).
We deliver this through our own freight tracking and management platform, combined with renewable diesel fuel (HVO100), electric freight rail, and ferry.
Our solution reports emissions data using the GLEC (Global Logistics Emissions Council) Framework carbon reporting to provide a trustworthy, reliable, and legitimate decarbonisation solution.
Green multimodal transport
1. The power of rail, road and ferry combined
We build solutions based on our client’s lanes and most important metrics - from delivery times to carbon reductions
Rail provides carbon reductions of up to 94% compared to diesel trucks but sometimes has geographical limitations. We fill in those gaps with ferries and 'green' HGVs to maximise efficiency so that deliveries are always on time.
2. Green HGVs fuelled with HVO
When rail freight needs to switch lines, and for initial pickup and deliveries, we use green HGVs (electric and renewable diesel) to ensure the whole route remains eco-friendly.
Zeus has access to nearly 15,000 HGVs and an established network of intermodal providers, so we can meet any need and instantly scale to meet your needs.
3. Fully automated and planned
At the core of Zeus Freight Connect lies our proprietary tech platform, designed from the ground up to bring simplicity, visibility, and modular specialisation to freight management.
Automated management ensures that operations run smoothly and sustainably, with shippers gaining full visibility and accurate reporting.

Client success stories
Shippers across all industries are already getting ahead of their climate goals, increasing their delivery reliability metrics, and reducing costs with Zeus:
I have worked with freight forwarders in the past, so my expectations were probably a bit low. However, it seems different with Zeus, there's more of a partnership with your suppliers and audience. There seems to be a much better relationship with your hauliers.
Luke
Group Transport Manager
We made the decision to partner with Zeus because we had some challenges in Italy meeting our Delivery on Time KPI, which is a key KPI in our business. We’ve been working with Zeus for four months now and the Zeus team is very responsive, knowledgeable and communication with the team is very fluid.

Transport Manager Mainland Europe
AB inBev was the first Enterprise-level customer for Zeus back in March 2021. They have steadily grown the size of their work with us, so that now nearly all of the AB inBev produced beers – that’s Beck's, Corona, Leffe, Stella Artois – sold in London stores have been put there by Zeus.
