Founded in 1967 to challenge traditional road haulage, Hupac has progressively expanded its services. During 1976, the firm decided to start offering a rolling highway service which was later expanded internationally. During 1990, the company started organising shuttle trains, by 2011, its Shuttle Net service was operating 110 intermodal trains per day. Various long-distance freight routes have been operated, such as between Scandinavia and Italy, Spain and Russia, and the Netherlands and Romania. Hupac is a member of the UIRR.
