Draft:Cartrans

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cartrans Preda SRL is a Romanian company specializing in road freight transport. Established in 1994, Cartrans has grown from modest beginnings to become a respected name in the Romanian transportation industry, known for its reliability and comprehensive services.

Overview[edit]

Cartrans Preda SRL, commonly known as Cartrans, operates primarily within Romania and the European Union, focusing on freight transport by road. The company has its headquarters in Ploiești, Prahova County, and has been an active participant in the Romanian market since its inception. Cartrans has built a reputation for quality services, leveraging a fleet that includes modern Euro 6 vehicles and a range of specialized trailers to cater to various transportation needs​​. Cartrans is a family company, being founded by Cristian Preda in 1994, who is still leading the management team after having an external CEO for a long period of time.

History and Development[edit]

The journey of Cartrans began with a single Mercedes Benz MB-814 truck, marking the company's entry into the road transport sector.[1]. Over the years, Cartrans expanded its fleet and services, reaching a significant milestone of 100 vehicles by 2004. This expansion was partly driven by partnerships with major automotive and furniture production companies. The fleet reached its peak with 215 trucks, demonstrating Cartrans' commitment to growth.

In pursuit of operational efficiency and customer flexibility, Cartrans introduced Cartrans Spedition in 2018[2] and CTP Service Autocamioane[3] in 2015[4]. These strategic moves allowed the company to enhance its service offerings, focusing on subcontractor-supplied equipment and specialized truck services​​.

Cartrans has been constantly adopting new technologies and management practices to stay ahead in a competitive market. Working with tools such as the FleetPanel or WindTyre[5] has been instrumental in the company's operations[6]. Acknowledged for its service quality, Cartrans has received a couple of awards. Most notable was, in 2015, the former CEO's Decebal Popescu being voted the most efficient transport manager during the Tranzit competition awards in Romania[7]

The company has made significant investments in its fleet and resources, including the acquisition of Euro 6 low-liner trucks and the construction of new headquarters and truck service facilities equipped with the latest technology. This has not only enhanced operational efficiency but also underscored Cartrans' commitment to environmental protection​​.

Mission, Vision, and Values[edit]

Cartrans is driven by a mission to excel as a dependable partner in the transport industry, both locally and internationally. The company's vision is to lead and innovate in the Romanian transport market, emphasizing quality services, professionalism, and customer orientation.
