Whip Around was born in 2016, originally to help freight companies in New Zealand tackle their paper-based compliance burden. It was whilst working for some of the globe’s largest freight companies, that co-founder James saw first-hand how much time paper was costing fleet managers every day. Within a year, the US market was calling loudly and the founders Tim and James were spending more time on planes and traversing the American market than anywhere else. Whip Around now has offices in Auckland, New Zealand, Charlotte, North Carolina and San Diego, California servicing our customers from coast to coast in the US and around the world.
Team culture is at the heart of our success, with personal improvement being just as important as company outcomes. We now boast a senior leadership team with experience from numerous successful global businesses and continue to double down on our vision to bring simplicity and efficiency to fleet management and compliance.
