SOVEREIGN.
B2B SHIPPING SOLUTIONS.

YOUR FLEXIBLE PARTNER

SOVEREIGN is independent and owner-managed. This gives us the leeway to have flexible, mobile and solution-oriented operations. This independence forms the solid foundation for trust and long-lasting relations for our customers, business partners and staff.

NEUTRAL AND INDEPENDENT

SOVEREIGN is the only B2B transport company in Europe whose service is exclusively available for courier, transport and logistics companies. This neutrality is unique. Customers from trade and industry have no access to our network. That’s why the main express and airfreight forwarding agents rely every day on our expertise and entrust us with their urgent and critical shipments. No matter whether it concerns regular express consignments or sporadic, last-minute transportations.
