Today, company contact details alone are no longer sufficient. Effective B2B analysis requires a broader view of a company's operations, including financial performance, vehicle assets, foreign economic activity, and other business characteristics.
YC.Market enables logistics analysis in Ukraine using open business data. The platform helps companies identify potential customers and partners, examine specific market segments, and access additional intelligence to support more informed B2B decisions.
Identifying cargo owners and potential customers
For companies providing logistics services, one of the main challenges is continuously finding businesses that may need transportation services.
Potential customers may include manufacturers, agricultural enterprises, distributors, importers, exporters, retail chains, and other companies with regular flows of goods. When building a target database, it is important to look beyond industry classification and consider factors such as location, company size, revenue, foreign economic activity, number of employees, and other relevant indicators.
This allows transport companies in Ukraine to move away from broad, undifferentiated prospect lists and focus instead on market segments where the probability of demand for logistics services is higher.
Finding carriers and building a logistics partner database
Carrier search becomes particularly important when companies launch new routes, experience seasonal increases in shipment volumes, or expand their delivery geography. In these situations, it is useful to build a pool of transport and logistics providers in advance, based on the company's core operational requirements.
Ukrainian carriers can be compared by operating region, type of business activity, available licences, vehicle assets, financial performance, and other accessible company characteristics.
In practical terms, this turns the broad need to "find a reliable logistics partner" into a structured shortlist of potential contractors that can be evaluated further.
Which NACE codes are commonly used by logistics companies
When identifying logistics providers, their registered business activities are an important starting point. One of the principal NACE codes used by freight carriers in Ukraine is 49.41 "Freight transport by road".
Transport and logistics operators frequently also register under NACE code 52.29 "Other transportation support activities", which covers services such as transport organisation and freight forwarding. Businesses providing warehousing services may operate under NACE code 52.10 "Warehousing and storage".
Additional NACE codes may apply depending on the mode of transport, including rail, maritime, and air freight. For this reason, market analysis should not rely on a single code. A company's broader combination of registered activities provides a more accurate picture of its operations and logistics capabilities.
5 facts worth checking before entering into a partnership
Before signing a contract, consider five key areas:
- Company status and NACE codes — confirm the company is active and that its registered activities match the services it claims to provide.
- Vehicles and licences — establish whether it has the necessary transport resources, licences, and permits.
- Financial position — review revenue, financial resilience, and other relevant performance indicators.
- Track record — assess participation in tenders, foreign trade activity, and broader evidence of commercial operations.
- Risk factors — check for court cases, outstanding debts, sanctions exposure, and other material warning signs.
Together, these checks provide a faster initial assessment of a prospective logistics partner before commercial cooperation begins.
Regional and tender market analysis
Ukraine's logistics market is closely shaped by the geography of business activity. A high concentration of manufacturers, trading companies, agricultural enterprises, or importers in a particular region may signal potential demand for new transport routes, regional representation, or warehouse hubs.
Public procurement data provides another valuable source of market intelligence. Tender analysis can show which organisations purchase logistics services, which Ukrainian transport and logistics providers compete for contracts, and where demand is emerging across different market segments.
YC.Market brings company search, business intelligence, and market analysis together in one platform. Sales, logistics, and procurement teams can use it to identify prospective customers and partners more efficiently and access additional data for initial qualification and screening.
