Our philosophy

Our roots and our future lie in the automation of vehicle-related processes. With our field-proven solutions for fleet management, procurement, corporate car sharing and owner liability, we are driving the digital evolution of corporate and vehicle mobility. As the market leader for fleet solutions, we have one goal: a needs-based procurement and use of vehicles in the fleet – flexible, transparent and simply controlled.

Matthias von Tippelskirch has been steering the course of Carano for 30 years.

We are digitizing the fleet industry

Since our founding, we have been driving digital transformation in the fleet industry. Especially now, the market is changing rapidly – whether it’s a growing desire for sustainable, individual mobility or a digital innovation push due to the pandemic. Our goal is therefore to support the transformation to (partially) electric fleets.

Industry pioneer for 30 years

With our field-proven solutions, we have been pioneers in the field of vehicle-based mobility for 30 years. We see ourselves as an integrator between fleet operators and service providers and want to make operational mobility cost-saving and smart. In doing so, we are in constant dialog with our customers in order to react flexibly to new requirements and needs.

Managing Director Hans-Joachim Guth is an absolute expert and industry connoisseur.

A forward-looking fleet is sustainable

Converting one’s own fleet to electromobility and the efficient utilization of vehicles poses a challenge for fleets. As industry experts, we support our customers on their way to sustainable and economical fleet management. To ensure that our solutions meet growing requirements, we incorporate the results of our research projects into the development of new products.

Exchange at eye level

Our daily goal at Carano is not just to sell software, but to build long-term partnerships based on trust, reliability and continuous support. Through direct customer contact, we can demonstrate our commitment to individual customer requirements and continuously develop our software solutions.
