SNAP’s network is expanding: What new countries are we available in?

With our recent acquisition of OTRA, we’re pleased to say that as well as our network expanding by over 120 new European sites, we’ll be entering seven brand-new territories: Austria, Bulgaria, Czechia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, and Romania.

All our new truck options are bookable via the SNAP Portal. Find your new sites across Europe today at https://snapacc.com/map/.

These countries are ideal for both fleet managers and drivers alike. Why? Let’s explore…

Austria

This location boasts an impressive road density, having one of the highest in Europe. As it’s central, it’s ideal for trans-European crossings with nearly 600 million tons carried annually. Plus, Austria is a world leader in telemetry and innovates in areas including sustainable transport. The country is also aiming to build strong international partnerships to standardise technical and legal boundary conditions, so it’s clearly a thriving part of the industry.

Bulgaria

Logistics currently sits at €5.6 billion in terms of market size for this territory, and further growth is on the horizon. Transport via road is the most popular option. There are more than 16,000 businesses, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2% over the last 5 years. Bulgaria also has a Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP), with their efforts to facilitate more efficient movement of freight a core part of this.

Czechia

Strategically located in Central Europe, Czechia is in the perfect position to act as the hub between Eastern and Western Europe. Its motorway network surpasses 1,380 kilometres and is on the way to 2,000 kilometres. This includes the D35 PPP motorway project, which will build 35 kilometres of additional motorway. What’s more, it’s predicted outlay on transportation will reach €13.2 billion by 2028, with an average annual growth rate of 1.8%.

Greece

In Greece, it’s expected that the logistics industry will get to €33.15 billion by 2029. Currently, the market size for road transport is €4.5 billion. There are over 31,000 businesses, and this has risen at a CAGR of 13.6% between 2019 and 2024. The country has a particular strength in shipping – it’s the biggest ship-owning nation, possessing more than 5,000 vessels. As a result, it holds the largest merchant fleet globally, meaning Greece will be making waves (figuratively and literally) going forward – both on water and the road.

Hungary

Road haulage takes care of around 80% of freight in this territory. Its market size is currently at €7 billion, but there’s growth of €23.51 billion anticipated by 2029. And there are almost 25,000 businesses – this has developed at a CAGR of 9.2% since 2019. With such high numbers, it’s no wonder Hungary is showing itself to be a prosperous part of the sector.

Italy

Currently at approximately €103.98 billion, this territory’s logistics market growth isn’t going anywhere either – it’s predicted it’ll exceed €128 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 3.71%. Although it’s previously experienced a lack of development, it’s bounced back through a focus on exports. As it’s situated at the centre of Europe and has a strong network, specifically in the Northern and Central parts of Italy, it’s seeing significant investment. In fact, it received €550 million in the first quarter of 2024 alone.

Romania

The final country we’re opening a new corridor into is Romania, and while it’s experienced quieter growth in the sector, it’s a vital part of the network. A substantial number of investors are predicting that it’ll act as a logistics hub to rebuilding Ukraine. There are 36,000 international road transporters registered here and it has one of the biggest workforces in the European Union – so it’s evident that we can expect great things.
