Overview
Founded in 2016 by Leander Naessens and Youri Van der Zwalmen, Peripass was built around a clear operational problem: truck congestion, dispatching inefficiencies, and manual administrative work at industrial logistics sites. The platform manages the complete inbound and outbound flow of trucks at warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing sites, replacing clipboards and phone calls with automated digital workflows.
The product generates more than 75% of its revenue from outside Belgium, operating in 13 countries across Europe. The company aims to equip 1,000 sites with its yard management software by 2030, which would improve daily waiting times for over 150,000 truck drivers. Key geographic targets for commercial expansion include France, the UK, and Germany.
In February 2024, Peripass secured EUR 7.5M in funding led by Welvaartfonds, building on previous investments from the Van Overstraeten Group. The company is using the capital to build a global partner network and strengthen existing commercial teams.

In the news
- Yesterday, we joined Port of the Future to explore how logistics is moving towards greater autonomy. From autonomous long-haul transport and transfer hubs to increasingly connected and automated yards, this transition will happen in stages, and require vehicles, infrastructure and operations to evolve together. Thank you to the Port of Antwerp-Bruges and everyone who stopped by for the interesting conversations! #PortOfTheFuture #AutonomousLogistics #FutureOfLogistics
- What does it take to manage 42 hectares, 6 warehouses and more than 300 trucks a day?? Before Peripass, the complexity of the site meant limited visibility, long waiting times and communication challenges. Today, Peripass helps create a seamless flow across the operation. Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at the yard, discover how Saint-Gobain uses Peripass in practice, and ask their team your questions. Sooooo want to see how Peripass simplifies a complex yard?

- 17 attendees. One yard. A lot of inspiration. 🚛 Last Friday, we took a behind-the-scenes look at VF Europe in Sint-Niklaas and their journey with Peripass: we explored how logistics processes are managed in practice. We closed with an open Q&A: What can you take back to your own yard, and where could you use some advice? Lots of ideas, insights and experiences were shared - and everyone went home inspired. A big thank you to VF Europe for opening their doors and to all 17 participants for making it such a great session!

- If the next move is already known, why is the truck still waiting? Recurring truck flows often follow clear rules. Yet dispatchers still have to repeat the same decision for every truck. In our webinar, Nele Lettens and Laura Wieleman will explain how Automatic Dispatch keeps routine movements flowing while exceptions remain visible and under human control. They'll cover: - Which truck flows are suitable for automatic dispatch - How business rules direct drivers to the correct gate, dock or parking area - What happens when a flow
