Surikat, headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden, develops software solutions for land-based and maritime logistics, addressing the complex needs of ports, terminals, and transportation operators globally.

Surikat’s SaaS solutions are centred on its Terminal Operating System (TOS) and Transport Management System (TMS), which deliver real-time visibility, automation, and operational efficiency. Serving over 35 countries, Surikat has a client portfolio including Stena Line, P&O Ferries, and Kuehne+Nagel. The company’s scalable platform integrates seamlessly into clients’ IT ecosystems, driving measurable ROI while supporting safety and regulatory compliance with key stakeholders.

International demand for modern software solutions in ports and logistics is expanding rapidly, with the global addressable market forecasted to continue to grow at high double-digit rates annually for TOS and transport visibility solutions. This growth is underpinned by increasing adoption of cloud-based systems, regulatory demands, and a global push for greater transparency across supply chains. Surikat has established itself as a trusted and leading provider in the high-growth niche of mission-critical logistics software for maritime and land-based terminals, with an impressive 31% revenue CAGR from 2021 to 2024.

Under the leadership of CEO Andreas Karlsson, who will remain as a significant shareholder alongside Bridgepoint, Surikat will continue to pursue an ambitious growth strategy. Leveraging the depth of sector expertise across Bridgepoint’s global office network, Surikat will expand its presence across new geographies, further enhance its software platform, and scale its operations, targeting adjacent markets such as intermodal and inland terminals as well as entry into additional high value geographies such as North America. Bridgepoint will provide strategic guidance and resources to reinforce Surikat’s scalability and position as a preeminent provider in the logistics software sector.
