This milestone marks a powerful next step for TRAVIS. With Knorr-Bremse’s backing, the company strengthens its ability and capacity to deliver value to fleets, service partners, and the entire industry. It enables TRAVIS to expand its impact and accelerates innovation in digital fleet solutions.  

Jochem de Graaf, CEO of TRAVIS, commented:  

“I couldn’t be prouder of what we have achieved. From starting as a local truck wash to growing into a platform with 2,500+ service partners across 26 countries, serving 7,000+ fleets in just a matter of years. We’ve proven that truck services can be made smarter, simpler, and more efficient in everyday operations across the industry. None of this would be possible without our trusted partners and loyal customers who believe in us, and of course not to forget our incredible team who makes it all happen.  

By joining Knorr-Bremse, we’re accelerating our journey forward. Together, we’ll unlock new ways to bring greater efficiency and reliability to fleets in their everyday truck services, from parking, cleaning, and repairs to charging and beyond. And as one team, we remain committed to what we do best: creating solutions that make life easier for carriers and service partners.”  

We’re incredibly proud to see Travis reach this milestone. From its roots as a local truck wash to becoming Europe’s leading platform for truck services, the team has shown exceptional vision and execution. The strategic fit with Knorr-Bremse is clear, and this acquisition will accelerate Travis’s ability to strengthen its market position and deliver even greater value to its customers.
