Why it matters

Finland’s Connection to International Logistics

Finland’s geographic location makes international transportation networks especially important. Sea freight, road connections, air cargo and multimodal transportation all contribute to moving Finnish imports and exports between Nordic, Baltic, European and international markets.

The Port of Helsinki describes itself as Finland’s leading general port for foreign trade. In 2025 it handled 13.4 million tonnes of goods, including machinery and equipment, forest-industry products, consumer goods and industrial products. Container traffic also remains important: the port reported approximately 486,000 TEU in 2025, an increase of 9.5% over 2024.

This international movement creates an environment where dependable logistics partnerships matter. Whether your business is located in Helsinki, Vantaa or another part of Finland, TranzNova can help increase your global visibility and develop relationships with logistics professionals worldwide.

How it works

Build Trust Before the First Shipment

Freight forwarding is built on trust. A company may be handing an overseas agent cargo belonging to one of its most valuable customers. That means professional relationships matter.

01

Communicate before the opportunity arrives

TranzNova gives members an environment where they can talk long before a shipment is on the table — so the relationship already exists when it is needed.

02

Become familiar, then be remembered

By staying active, exchanging information and engaging with other logistics professionals, Finnish companies become familiar to potential overseas partners. Then, when someone needs a freight forwarder in Finland, your company has a better opportunity to be remembered.

03

Coordinate origin and destination

A Finnish freight forwarder handling an export can coordinate origin services in Finland while working with a trusted overseas agent for destination services.

04

Grow without opening branches

This cooperative model enables independent freight forwarders to provide wider international coverage while remaining locally focused.
