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
- Curious to see what Peripass looks like in practice? We’re soon hosting a Lunch & Learn together with Verbrugge, where we’ll give you an exclusive behind-the-scenes look! Verbrugge has an interesting Peripass setup where safety and efficiency go hand in hand: 🚛 Every driver scans their passport and completes a safety test before dispatch. 🚛 Thanks to the integration with Transporeon, transport planning and feedback processes run as efficiently as possible. 🚛 All of this is part of one streamlined yard management process.
- Last week, we had the honour of being recognised as one of Belgium’s 50 fastest-growing technology companies at the Deloitte Technology Fast 50. A milestone we're incredibly proud of.

A huge thank you to our team, customers, and partners for making this journey possible. 🙌 #Peripass #yardmanagement #DeloitteFast50 #TechnologyFast50
- Fast50 is amazing, don't get me wrong, but where THE H*LL is the Manufacturing category?? In his speech, Rolf Driesen mentioned (rightfully so!) that manufacturing is and will be an important driver of growth for our Belgian and European economies. Then why is there no Manufacturing award? 🤨 It's not a lack of companies: Ikologik machine monitoring, OEE, planning, energy.

- The dock plan at 06:00. The dock plan at 06:12. Making the plan isn’t the hard part. Keeping it once the day starts is.
