In 2013, as VP of Sales at a prominent logistics company, Davide Trantino quickly recognized the demand in ready-for-retail bagged residential wood pellets in the European market. His first task was to travel to Italy to meet with potential buyers to spark their interest in Canadian wood pellets in bagged format. Also acting as a no-charge consultant and translator, he linked buyers and sellers together in an effort to handle to containerized logistics, allowing Davide to be the first freight forwarder to open a brand new export market into Europe from Eastern Canada.
Since then, Davide has been a pioneer and a leader in containerized wood pellet exports from both East & West Coast Canada and Eastern USA into Europe and Asia. This is how CTC was born.
The key differentiator in working with Cargo Trade Consulting is our unique turnkey logistics solutions coupled with the best rates in the market and an excellent staff to oversee all inventory and documentation. All export services may include inland trucking/rail, crossdocking, container delivery and ocean freight to any destination. CTC has since evolved in offering logistics by container, brokerage of pellets and consulting services to buyers, pellet producers and suppliers for the industry.
CTC holds a distinctive position, enabling it to influence and establish secure supply contracts for suppliers seeking entry into the export market for the very first time.
​
In 2022, CTC has been the orchestrator of over $22M worth of Canadian and American wood pellets being shipped to Europe. That is 4500 containers a year and growing.
