Uber Freight is expanding its fourth-party logistics operations in Europe, with plans to establish a new control tower and operations hub in Krakow, Poland.
The new location is due to open in 2027 and will expand the company’s European footprint alongside its existing operations in the Netherlands.
Uber Freight said it is also investing in dedicated product and engineering resources for Europe, including development of its transportation management system (TMS), as well as growing customer-facing operations.
The investment builds on momentum with Uber Freight’s North American customers, many of which also operate in Europe and are looking to work with fewer logistics partners across their global operations. The company said it doubled the number of new 4PL deals secured in Europe during 2025.
Chemicals have been identified as an early focus for further growth in Europe. Chemical manufacturer OXEA has recently selected Uber Freight to manage transportation across the USA, Canada, Mexico and Europe. The contract covers road freight, intermodal rail and short-sea shipping and represents Uber Freight’s first 4PL engagement designed from the outset to span both North America and Europe.
Rebecca Tinucci, CEO of Uber Freight, said: “Logistics is global by nature, but too often it’s managed through disconnected partners and regional silos.
“The more of that complexity we can bring together, the simpler and more efficient it becomes for customers to run their global supply chains.”
Uber Freight has also appointed Mike Doucleff as head of Europe, effective 28 September.
