Alpega, a leading global logistics software company, has completed the acquisition of TenderEasy AB, Stockholm. The majority in Alpega is owned by funds managed by Castik Capital, the European private equity investment firm.
 
TenderEasy complements Alpega with its freight tendering software solution that is offered to customers across verticals and geographies. The company was founded in 2004 in Stockholm and launched its freight contract tendering solution in 2012. Since then, many reputable customers have been won.
 
TenderEasy strategically broadens the product portfolio and geographic reach of the Alpega Group as it provides a critical add-on solution to Alpega's Transportation Management Software ("TMS") brands inet and Transwide. Customers of the tendering solution will benefit from the Alpega network of over 50,000 on-boarded carriers for sourcing transport providers.
 
While the TenderEasy solution will continue to be available stand-alone, it will also be technically integrated with the inet and Transwide products. This combines the freight tendering solution of TenderEasy with the TMS of Alpega to provide its customers with a seamless user experience when using several products of the Group.
