Quote requests worth answering
Commodity, weight, both addresses and the loading date arrive in the form, so operations stops asking the same ten questions on the phone.
For Logistics
Logistics & International Freight Website
Before a shipper hands you a load, they check you out: which lanes you run, what licences you hold, who answers when a truck is stuck at the border. A site that shows your routes, your fleet and your paperwork — and collects a quote request with real cargo details — ends that check in your favour. Forpus builds sites for international freight and logistics companies.
What does a logistics website include, and what does it cost?
A logistics website is your own address for showing the lanes you run, the fleet you own and the licences you hold, and for collecting quote requests. A typical site Forpus builds carries separate service pages for full loads, groupage, temperature-controlled and project cargo, a routes section covering the countries and border crossings you work, a fleet page listing tractors and trailer types, a quote form that asks for the commodity, gross weight, loading and delivery addresses, loading date and delivery terms, your licences, CMR insurance cover and association memberships, an English version, a 24/7 operations contact and a careers page for driver recruitment. A corporate site covering services and fleet runs ₺50,000–85,000 and goes live in one to two weeks. A multilingual site with lane-by-lane pages and a quote form that reaches operations runs ₺90,000–150,000 over two to four weeks. Once shipment tracking and a customer panel are involved, you are looking at a project starting from ₺220,000. No price list goes up: rates move with the load and the date, so the whole flow is built around requesting a quote.
Found from abroad
An English version lets forwarders and buyers in Europe find you in their own language, instead of work arriving only through contacts.

Frequently asked questions
Should we publish a price list?
No. Freight rates move with the load, the volume, the date, vehicle availability and the season, so a fixed list is either wrong or binding. But 'no prices' is not enough either. The right structure is a quote form reachable from every page, fields that describe the cargo, and a clear promise about response time — the certainty a buyer wants is in when you reply, not in a number.
What should the quote form ask?
Commodity, gross weight and pallet or volume figures, loading and delivery addresses (country and city at minimum), estimated loading date, vehicle type and delivery terms. Reefer loads add a temperature range; dangerous goods add the ADR class. If you worry a long form will scare people off, we build it in two steps: three fields first, details after submission.
Do we need more than one language?
In this sector it is the line that pays for itself fastest. A forwarder in Europe searching for a Turkish carrier does not search in Turkish — they type the lane, the trailer type and the company in English. A Turkish-only site sits outside all of that traffic. We add German, Russian or Arabic where your volume justifies it, but English comes first.
Can customers track their shipment on the site?
Yes. The simplest version lets a customer enter a trip or file number and see stages: loaded, at the border, in customs, delivered — with operations updating status from the panel. We can integrate your vehicle tracking system too. An honest warning: live position sharing invites a phone call for every movement, and most companies are happier with stage-based status.
Should we show our licences and memberships?
Absolutely, and most competitors bury this at the bottom of the page. Your transport licence, TIR carnet authorisation, CMR insurance cover, industry association memberships and any quality certifications belong in a section of their own. Nothing restricts you from publishing them — the advantage goes to whoever writes them down.
Have you built sites in this sector?
Yes. We built the corporate site for Çekiç Trans, which runs international road freight from Turkey to the Balkans: services set out one by one, routes, fleet and a quote flow reachable from every page. Most of the effort went into the copy rather than the design — replacing generic adjectives with verifiable detail like the countries on a single lane and years of border-crossing experience.
